Title: The big Five Oh.......
Post by: Ugly Mongrel on April 20, 2012, 06:27:21
Lubricious hit the big 50k today. I am happy to report that she has not had ONE hiccup since she was delivered in July 2010.

I was so excited, I brought her a nice bunch of flowers. :D

Based on the crude guesstimate that for every kilometer you have travelled - the engine has turned at least 2500 revs. Your engine has therefore revolved 125,000,000 times

Assuming a stroke of 84.5 mm, each piston will have travelled 21,125 km

Assuming your tyres are 205 55 R16. Your wheels would have rotated 24,213 times


Not much really is it................. :whistler:
