I did a 125 mile journey twice, journey #1 I went as fast as possible and got 45 MPG, journey #2 i stuck to 85 MPH or below and accelerated like a fiesta, 60 MPG. Cool Thumbs Up

How many MPG do you get?

The ZZR seems to do 40 - 45mpg noi matter how I ride it.
The Benelli has done anything from 25 - 45 depending on if I'm working it hard through the gears or blatting down the motorway.
The V Raptor seems to do about 35mpg most of the time.

Hi

Bandit manages a shade of 45mpg most of the time. The Divvy slightly better (but not much). The FZ750 does just over 50mpg. Get about 55mpg from the RS125, and 30~40mpg from the Bimota.

All the best

Keith

I normally get about 60-65MPG on the GS, though I have been known to get nearer to 75MPG when I had the ER-5!
