 Big smiles all round after Weston this weekend. for those who were following our story about the sad GTS 300 that had to have a full engine rebuild after owning it for less than a week then heres a happy ending.
I'ts now run in and we took it to another Piaggio dealer for it's "first service" at 1000 miles, they checked it over, all the levels were done etc and now we're pulling 90 2 up with luggage, good eh! Only thing is to get the fuel light etc sorted and new sender unit and dash is on order and will be replaced under warranty.

 Not exactly sure because of dodgy fuel gauge at the moment etc but think about 65 mpg, but at those sort of speeds you wouldn't expect it to be good would you? Pulled away from the 250's though! Sweet!
