That's only just over 13/litre - that aint flash.

The XLV750 did 17kpl no matter how I rode it,2nd and 3rd gear on the limiter on gravel roads or cruising at 120kph on boring stuff - a low stressed V twin.The XT400E got the same being thrashed all the time.The DT230 takes me 165 km to reserve on 9 litres - that's 18kpl...I'm surprised,and that's usually a fair bit of gravel with heaps of wheelspin..Because I don't get many km to the tank I tend to think it's thirsty,but it's a small tank so deceives me.It can drop to 16kpl if I really thrash it,but not bad for a little 2 stroke keeping up with the big boys.

From brim to reserve, about 12 litres, I'm getting 224k.
