Somewhere between 29 and 56, depending on whether I'm commuting or using the motorway, on my VFR800. I get between 105 or 200 miles before the last fuel indicator starts blinking, and that's about 16 litres from initial blink to full when on the side-stand.

For some reason my er6f appears to be measuring in American gallons. 
Anyway, 34.5 MPGUS equates to 41.433 MPG in English money.

I have been looking at CB1000r's lately which looks like it would end up costing me another £8-10 a week in fuel. This part isn't the problem its just the having to stop to fill the thing that annoys me. Currently I am having to fill up twice a week but with the CB this would be every other day looking at reported tank ranges  . |
My consumption on the CB1000R dropped a fair bit when I added the PCV and Yoshi, maybe 5mpg, keep it stock and you can get between 120-140 before you should need to fill it up again, some on the CB1000R forum can get 150 out a tank, but I never got close to that, but none of my riding was commuting (I have a company car that I need to use during the week) The CB1kR is a fun bike though, very nimble, and up to 80mph about as quick as anything, if you fancy one do it, if I could have afforded both I would have kept mine, but felt a bit selfish spending on a toy only I could use, so got a bike suitable for two, meaning I can share the fun with my wife or my youngest daughter. |
