So what does everyone get? MPG wise

What bike and what fuel do you put in?

Honda CB-1 (400cc) NC27 '89'

I get 46mpg and use shell optimax!

I have absolutely no idea!

It goes onto reserve.

I fill it up!


Anybody else got an RS125 so I could get an idea?

Hi

Generally out of the bikes that get used a fair bit:-

RS125 = 55mpg
FZ750 = 50mpg
1200 Bandit = 45mpg
GPZ500 = 60mpg
Bimota YB10 = 35mpg

They do vary a bit, especially the Bimota.

All the best

Keith

Dunno what it works out at in MPG but my EL250 does around 100 miles on about £5 of unleaded at 80p/litre.

I think I'd get about 45-50 if it's ridden sensibly.

Well 4.54 Ltrs = 1 Gallon and £5 is approx 6 Ltrs?

So I'd estimate 70MPG, but I will stand corrected cos my math skills are crap Wink.
