Re: Why did I buy a diesel ?

the diesel has the initial advantage due to the agricultural torque, however once the revs are up it's no contest

Speed is far more sensitive to observation skills than engine power...

I first did the Roadcraft course because I'd bought a very fast bike and i wanted to stay alive. It did trim off my peak speed, as I expected.

I was not prepared for the massive increase in mean speed that came with it. I now get to my destination more quickly than before I did the course, despite not actually going quite as fast any more.
