Honda CX400 fuel range?

[nathan.read]

Just checking that my bike is runing ok.

I am getting 140 ks before I have to go onto reserve, the bike is a 1986 Honda CX 400 Custom, to fill from reserve is about 10 litres. Is that about the range I can expect?

14 km per litre . It would be cheaper to drive a V8

But more fun on a bike.... a V8 would be 14 l per 100km, the bike is currrently about 7 l per 100 km

So it's last tune up was? . . .

Read factorypro website on worn emulsion tubes (have to dig around). But could be anything else, would expect 18kpl or more.

I asked the shop to give it a tune and get it going last month, the spent a couple of hours on it and replaced the plugs.
I have started riding more gently (ie not going to 9k in each gear) to see if that helps.
I will also go into the shop tomorrow and ask what work they did, will also get a new air cleaner too

Changed the way I ride and just got 150 km from 10 litres.... its an improvement, bike is still off to the shop on Monday for a tune
