It was a good deal at the 2017  model last year, so I bought that one ???? 

Good call not lot of changes but there's 3 models, don't know whether Thailand would have all 3 on sale..

The 650 I had was good on juice how how does 1000 compare.

 

The old bike I have now has carbs only does 14 kilos to the litre and less if you goose it.

I blieve first in 2019 there was two models in Thailand and in 2017 only one. 

 

Normal driving I get 250 km a 15L and if I drive with my gf 300 Km aprox. She drive my old cb500x on her own, so not a pillon.

So my old carb bike cbr900rr ain't so bad, the spec on a fuel injected cbr1000rr does 16 kilo to litre.

Never heard from anyone on TV who has one here, or maybe I missed it.

Rode one in Pattaya, it seemed very tame to me.

Try riding a 300 two-stroke. I would lay in bed dreaming about numbers like that.

Never liked 2 strokes, rode a RD once, fun but not my thing. 

A 300 2 stroke would have similar power of a 600 4 stroke so would think same kinda kilo to litres.

14 litre tank. Started planning a stop at 200 kms. 1.2l reserve is good for 20kms absolute max.

I take it you have got rid of it now.

No. It's in Isaan somewhere in a barn. Will be OK if rats haven't eaten the wiring.

Have a Versys for daily/frequent ride. I saw an Aprilia RS250 in town the other day so it has company.
