johnr: I have a 2013 DRZ400sm and they are cheap as chips to run


Apparently there's a guy somewhere in the world who invented a car which somehow charges itself from the RF coming off cell towers?

A ha if that was possible how come I need to charge my phone once a day? Would it not self charge

Think of the difference in current drain between a electric car and mobile phone

I have an old one cent coin here at home. If you want it, it's yours.

You could take it into the Reserve Bank in Wellington and have your bank account credited for it.

None of this beats the time I went to KFC, gave them exact cash for the rounded amount and ended up getting 10c change from them.

That would be for 92? I got Z's 95 ... Bike compression has been mildly upped so I like running something a little higher like Z's 95 ... With the monster 10litre tank the few extra cents don't tend to be noticeable :-)

And that's another thing, paying for electricity. It's AC -- they get all their electrons back already 50 times a second. Surely it all averages out in the end. Why should I pay?
