Big bore kits, mpg & rear tyre wear
I'm putting so many klms on my bike, it can't be long before the motor's going to need a rebuild. & being a Mad Modder, I usually take these times as a chance to beef up the original. So I'm thinking of cubing up the Scrambler. But I don't want to turn it into a tyre shredder. Can any of you guys who've already gone the big-bore route tell me what kind of milage you're getting out of your rear tyres, & any increase in fuel consumption, since you did it?
I haven't noticed much of an increase in rear tyre wear from my Thunderbike performance kit, but the fuel range suffers a bit if I'm on the throttle a lot.
Also, what would be the best kit for a 270 motor? Has anybody else done it to a Scram? Or planning to? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
