SwissVan Posted April 30, 2012 Share Stop bitching and just work it out. The bitching's going to start when the cost per km is revealed for sure, best to let sleeping bucks lie... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebeen Posted May 2, 2012 Share Just out of interest, what has your bike cost you thus far in terms of Rands per km. Its one thing buying an expensive bike, but you are only going to get value for your money if you use it. I will start off: I bought my current bike second hand for R7000 and have ridden 2000 km on it. That makes the cost thus far R3.50/km. I have not included services and race fees etc just to try to keep things simple. but if you sold it tomorrow for seven grand it won't have cost you a cent.you can't ignore current value if you want to compare across the board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fujioso Posted May 2, 2012 Share My bike just clicked over to 20k km. So that equates to less than R1 per km, including all the money spent on it, kit included over the past two years. The good news is that I do a lot of km per annum, so I can buy an expensive bike next time round and will still work out quite cheap. Nice.
