A Info is Place Name, Kilometers from Norseman, Fuel branding & Hours of operation (supplied on a little
slip of paper at the counter of the BP servo. Caltex at Norseman cheaper than BP.

*Edit* I don't know where "I" is on the map so guess based on Border village and Nullarbor being the furthest apart

Quiet day at work huh!  Great addition Marcus    I will add any comments on particular places as they come in (as in, avoid, great food, have to hand in licence or pay up front etc)

Dropped into Madura Pass and enquired

Caltex at Coolgardie is currently being renovated. Rode past it today. There is a Liberty at the other end of town but not sure about their opening hours

[saaz]

Keep any updates coming, as I will consolidate in the main listing.

[Wombat]

Norseman Fuel at Caltex cheaper than BP.
Eucla fuel about 10 cents cheaper than Border Village.
Nullabor roadhouse has good burgers. Tent site on bluemetal hardstand is $20 although charged Hoffy and Me $10 each and good showers are coin operated at $1.

Sorry it is a Puma not Liberty and no premium at the moment

[Wombat]

This is for Brock who loves his fuel
It also shows I need to look at timing and carby equalization.

These figures are with wide swag across the seat, using highway blades, NGK Iridium plugs and an over zealous throttle. We only rode in day light so I dont know the opening times.

 Wombat  White Undercoat is not as slippery as Coloured  Hi Gloss paint, therefore less fuel economy.
