I just checked the mileage for the first time after the break in period was over, I got a whopping 87 miles per gallon!  ;D Not too shabby eh?
On the eighth day God created the C5, and it was better looking than anything on the planet.

Whoooooaaaaah!!!

That's some awesome mileage there, dude!

What more could anyone ask for?
A stunningly beautiful bike that can go anywhere, and runs all day on a few bucks.
Sounds like a winner to me!

Ah, the wonders of diesel conversion.  What is the top speed like after a proper gearing change with the diesel engine installed?
There's something that doesn't make sense... let's go and poke it with a stick.
