TDM is much more economical than the Street Triple was best when I first got it was less than 4l/100km but now more like 4.5l/100km Street Triple best was 5.5 and normally around 6l/100km ridden over the same roads but maybe not quite the same way.

Sunday's run on the S3 1050 trip computer
390 km's
AVG Speed 93kph Including all the towns etc
Highest speed 1XX
My calculated fuel consupmtion 7L / 100km's Normally get around 5.5L / 100km taking it easy.
I can ride the Duc at any speed and i consistently get 5L / 100km
On the SVS I used to get around 22 - 24 km/l. The Gixxer does around 16 km/l...although one memorable trip to d'Auckland in atrocious conditions which necessitated a degree of care to stay upright, I managed close to 20km/l. Push it out and you drop to 14km/l...
I'd rather have the power than the fuel economy though...

ZX14 - On my last check I got 6.7, typical probably late 6's early 7's.
Proportional to how many demerit points I have left.
if I'm being nice, 16k/l, if I'm being bad, 15, if i'm being very very very bad, 13

People mock me for riding a 'little piece of shit' on the road but at 14 kilometres (approx) per litre, I think that I have the last laugh.... Bike is pretty much thrashed at over 100kph on my 12.5km each way commute too....
A tank can last me 2 whole working weeks if I only use it to go to work and back. Long distance trips the bike is still just as economical just waaaay more uncomfortable!
about 60 MPG on the GT650R and 65MPG on the GS500.
Currently getting 19 km/l normal use
This changed after my fill up for last Sundays LOR ride trying to keep up with guys on thou's from the above to something like 12 km/l for this last tank.... but it was worth it![]()
about 28-30km/l used to get 33 when 1st started riding
My Ducati S4 gets to around 220K (light comes on) and I usually fill it with about 12.3 litres
That equates : 220k divide by 12.3 litres = 16.2 Ks per litre.
or around 6 litres per 100km.
My CBR usually does around 4.5-5L/100km, depending on how I ride it of course. Thrashing the phuck out of it at Ruapuna does around 7L/100km. I'm keen to hear about the fuel economy of the hot smokers.
I am a quiet rider, but both my 1200 sporty and my 650 kawasaki twin use less than 4 litres per 100 on a normal ride. That can be transformed, particularly on the 650, with just a little right hand..
David must play fair with the other kids, even the idiots.
2 weeks? I've often used up most of a tank in 2 hours.One working day, I did about 220km in Auckland. As far north as Oteha Valley Rd and as far south as East Tamaki.
I enjoy the long rides... fill, 400km, quick break, fill bike and you, ride for another 400km, another break (always under 30min) then another 400km![]()
