Fuel range (maybe 90 miles?)

@barbagris, Chris,
Yes but .75 of our 6.2 gal tank is 4.65 gal and 60 miles makes 13 mpg!!!

I got down to 20 playing about with the MAP based tune Rob sent me. And I wasn't trying hard.

The next time I checked I got about 32mpg doing normal highway speeds, thats about the best I get.

I have said it before, but when in doubt, Do Like @Boog, carry a gallon of spare fuel when gas stops are far between, and let her eat. 90 to 120 uses a lot of fuel......Happy, Happy, Happy!!

I would guess that this is the nature of the beast, I have noticed, if I am being especially spirited with the bike, I better know where a gas station is, I found going to stearns last spring, I was averaging about 235miles per tank, but I wasn't pushing it hard. regular riding in the city, if I get 120miles off of a full tank I think that is totally awesome.
I really have no clue what good or bad mileage is on this thing, and I really don't care, I didn't buy it to be fuel efficient, I bought it to have fun, and man it has no let me down yet.

Indeed, it is not about the mileage - tis about having a properly tuned engine.
My engine is stock with improved air and exhaust and runs rich to get 160 rwhp.
I still get at least 160 miles on a tank filled to the screen.

If I ride highway / city I average about 225 Km ( 140 m ) and highway between 300-325 Km ( 186 - 201m ) between 110-120 Kmh ( 68 -75 mph ) out of a full tank of fuel.

ok, so you are pretty much in the same fuel range that I am in, so I guess it is what it is and that is the way it will be, cool, now if it doesn't rain i'm going out to play
