***SUZUKI GN125H MPG Specs.***

[olanzapine]

Hi Everyone,

I've had my new Suzuki GN125H now for around 10 days and have clocked up nearly 250 miles. A day or so after I got it, filled the tank up and set the trip to zero and then rode around on it till today when I went back to the petrol station and topped up the tank to the brim, then did the crucial calculation and my MPG equates to 180miles/gallon.

Now you might not believe me but I assure you it's true, the only cheating I've done is kept the revs below 5500rpm=40mph because I'm still running in.

Cheers
Olanzapine

So it really only used 6.3 litres? That's fantastic


It puts my cars 25MPG in its place (and the CG's 77)

That's excellent mpg, I had a Suzuki RV125 (Van Van) and only managed 115mpg but I did rag it a fair bit, well I had to really especially on the hills.

Ideally you should obtain consumption readings over 1,000 miles, or better still 5,000 miles to get a good average, just one tankful isn't always an accurate assessment.

One of my recent fill-ups returned over 148mpg, but my overall average to date is only 133mpg , however I was getting over 155mpg whilst running in, so in comparison 180 is an excellent figure.

[stonesie]

In its defence, it had a fuel leak, the wrong main jet (108 when it should be a 95) and a gay little cone filter that sounded like a blowing exhaust .

All issues fixed now (standard air box/filter, 95 main jet and leak plugged) and topped her up today, might be some time before I get a figure for this tank though

EDIT ..... 96mpg, wonder if a re-bore to stop it burning oil will nudge it over 100?

Hang on a mo...



5.15litres filled my tank to the brim, my trip said 204.3 miles

5.15/4.546=1.133 UK gallon's
204.3/1.133=180.3

Just wait 'till she's run in and you start wringing its neck

39mpg average on my zzr. I think I need a 125cc for work and back. Or even better one of those 100cc strokers the mr cows is always on about!

That's absolutely fantastic. And I know 77 from a CG is horrible romeohotel, but I achieved the same once going a pure 70MPH

I hit 80MPH on my CG yesterday. It was the largest hill I've ever been on and my engine was running absolutely perfectly - the poor thing. I dread to think of what THAT does to my fuel efficiency.

The only time I've ever hit 120MPG or over was when sticking to 40MPH without having to brake or accelerate for many, many miles - hours in fact.

I head that the new CBF125 is pretty damn good with economy as well with it's new-fangled EFI. I might have to give up the CG some day after all!

ms51ves3: why does it need 500 miles? Are you teaching it how to be a piston?

Hello guys!


That isn't necessarily a disadvantage. Being mechanically more simple means easier to maintain and repair through out the decades to come.

Whoa, I think you're right. There's an echo in here

looks like the GN125s are a good base to build a super mpg bike

[dextersaurus]

That's bloody good

Once you start wringing it's neck though, you'll get a lot less

Mind you, my CG was at full throttle EVERYWHERE and i still managed about 100-120mpg

I'm doing a commute of around 22 miles each way per day on my 2000 registered CG125.

I chucked in 5 litres of fuel on Sunday after headed to my work for a dry run through the route. This morning, I chucked in another 5 litres before heading to work.

By my reckoning, that's around 110 miles on 5 litres of fuel, so very roughly about 100 mpg.

OK, it's nowhere near an accurate reflection yet, but I'm feeling pretty happy with that figure for now

Hi All,

I've nearly clocked up 1000 miles on GN125H and to be honest I've noticed that the trip meter is perhaps reading high, by how much?, well I think about 1/3 too high. Originally, I claimed 180mi/gallon which does seem a little bit too good?

When I use my AA route finder for a particular route(mates house), the total distance given is 13 miles, my trip meter reads 20 miles for same distance. So, if you multiply 180*0.6666... you get 120miles/gallon, which seems abit more realistic.

What do you think?

Cheers

Does that mean the speedo is 30% out too? I have no idea whether the odometer/speedometer is mechanically driven or an electronic jobbie on the GN125.

[Derivative]

13 miles is ~20km, so I'd assume there was a dodgy km/h conversion at some point.

Is it just the trip meter, or odometer as well? Do they move at different rates?

120mpg sounds reasonable. I did think 180 was a load of bollocks but didn't want to pipe up. I get around 90-110 on the CG depending on if i rag it.

I get around 140 mpg around town from my Chinese Honda CM125 copy. (It has a CG clone engine in but with twin exhausts so I get a little extra power)
