As a corporate lawyer, I'm not good with math, but 1,662 mi. in 24 hrs.
would be an amazing 69.25 mph.  Let's see, given time for gas stops,
food, 4 leaks and a duke . . . I'm guessing your average riding speed
must have been . . . 110 mph?  JK!

Roger, you still got the FZ1?  And I still need one!  Damn, it pains me
to see that you still have it, b/c I still want it!  Problem is, my
better half doesn't see the wisdom in a 3rd motorcycle.  I'm so
conflicted.

Then there is oil consumption.  In October, I ran a 24 hour endurance
rally
in New Mexico.  I rode 1662 miles in that 24 hour period--you do the
math to
figure how fast I might have been riding.  By the time I got home, I had
about 4,000 miles on that oil change and had not burned a drop.  As most
of
us know, the GTS would have been an entirely different story.
