My KLE has 84000+km on the clock but had a whole engine overall done by Fourways kawa at around 56000km I have just spent close on 5k between 2 different mechanics and although the bike is going fine I am only getting 15km per L which as I used to get 22 - 24km/L ten thousand km's ago is just not fair. Petrol and maintenance cost per km I may as well ride the 4x4 with aircon to work  :-[ really feeling DOWN!!  >:D just can't afford to spend any more Money on it, at 2k per month maintenance i may at well get myself a road bike to commute on ...... with the new petrol price i just can't afford to ride it  :'(    :'(  :'( going to have to wrap it in cotton wool and only bring it out on special occasions.
I got to go find a bottle of whiskey to drown my sorrows .....
