They shouldn't get off that easy, we should bill them for the same rates they do, 15 cents per extra mile.

Funny thing is that Honda's, Acura's, and nissans are known imports that are to be modified. When changing to bigger wheels with a different diameter, it is illegal for the speedometer to read slower. It is actually a liability issue if you re going faster than the speedometer displays. Just like our bikes, i'm pretty sure that we're losing out on a lot of mileage......

So now i'm thinking...maybe i don't drive that much...maybe i only drive 36k a year instead of 38k-40k a year.......
