Hi Everyone,

Haven't posted on here in months so just thought I would pop back on! Due to increasing fuel prices and a thirsty car I am spending so much money on petrol these days. Quite possibly £300+ a month.
Now, my girlfriend lives 45 miles away so thats a 90mile round trip but I also work local and always drive around local. I am looking at getting a 125cc scooter to use so that I can go to work and back on it and also use on a day to day basis.
What sort of MPG would a 125cc scooter get and how many miles can you get from a tank?
Thanks in advance

James

I'd expect a very good MPG, atleast 70mpg, maybe more.

"I got top speed of about 65mph and av. petrol consumption 110 mpg"
