fuel efficiency fucked?

[MaybeGuy]

Hi,
bit of a quick one im having to type otherwise i might burn the burgers im making...

just worked out that im getting about 40-45 miles to £5 of fuel... roughly 40mpg?

this normal? or is something a bit titty?

bike in question is a carbeurretered GSXR600 SRAD

cheers queers xxxxxx

EDIT: its restricted if that makes any difference... doesnt rev above 8-9k easily... 7-8k tops in 6th gear

nah that sounds about right.

the best bike I've found for mpg, was a bmw...could sup anywhere between 10-12 miles per litre on average.


Best I got was nearly 270 miles to 22 litres..

[hmmmnz]

my neighbour was getting over 100 miles for 5 litres .....
was a xr125 though, i get about 30 miles for 5 litres

My 650cc 1cyl carb averaged 47-50mpg @ 75-80 (90 max) mph, my 1000cc V2 EFI averages 44-45mpg @ 80-90 (105 max) mph. But having just fitted a TRE I got 49 mpg tonight, so I'd say your consumption sounds about right, are you a "spirited" rider?

For most 600cc sports bikes they will do anywhere from 35-45 mpg so yours is fine no need to worry. From my r6 i get about 130 miles to £15 i think thats about 37 mpg or somthing.
