That's no way to talk about Amber, Jordan! 
I haven't bothered slip steaming or eco driving or anything like that. That mpg consists of at least half hour of town traffic yesterday (not seen traffic like it, must've been for Black Friday deals!), ~20 miles on cruise at 70, a twisty B road blast and then a few 'eco' miles through the 40 limit where I set the cruise instead of keep creeping and backing off. I'm not interested in 'on a run' or 'eco driving' mpg myself, want to know what I'll average over a tank roughly every time.
Procta - I had to bend the fan cowling to get it out, I can't bend it to get it back in (nothing to push against). To do it properly I'd have to remove the rad, which involves removing the grill, which involves remove the anti-tamper bonnet release - these are well known for failing after being disturbed which leaves the bonnt stuk closed. I'd rather cut a little lump of plastic than go through all that lol!
