    Fuel Economy

    What sort of litreage per 100kms are you getting

    i just managed to squeeze 230kms out of 12 litres on the zx9r, that was with a few good squirts, a little one wheel action

    Have you taken your bike over any sweet jumps?

    My GSX250 Invader gets about 250-300 ks out of $15, so that's about 10 litres. Not sure of the math, but I think (on the 250), anything over 5c/km is not so great. Mind you I'm a fat f#*k so the poor thing is slogg'n it's guts out

    Hyosung 250GT gets 30km/l when taking it easy. 25km/l for the other 95% of the time.
    [edit] thats 3l/100kms and 4l/100kms.

    Started out at about 20km/L or 5L/100km but I'm fat and not even thinking about economy. Race off just about every set of lights

    Can conservatively I should probably easily get 4.5L/100km. I've also noticed that my economy is slowly getting worse and worse as I get quicker and ride a little faster.

    Open road 110km/h kills my economy and I get about 6L/100km.

    If the prices keep on going up I might have to ride a little more smoothly

    I got 16.6 km/lt on the Southern Cross ride over nearly 4000 km with short-shifting and constant throttle settings. It's down to 10 or 12 km/lt if I'm out for a thrash.

    :hbd: Burning 91 octane around town, consumes about 2.67l/100km or 37.5km/l or 106mpg :hbd:
    90% of the time spent writing this post was spent thinking of something witty to say. It may have been wasted.

    100miles per gallon or 30km per ltr.
