About 40mpg round town. 55plus on longer runs A&B roads but as Im an older g.t my rev counter is rarely north of 7000!

Hiya Ghosty, check mine mate.  Big Grin
Was out in Lincolnshire yesterday, covered 311 miles,  56mpg!!!  Usually fill up around 180 miles on the tripmeter, not sure what the trip said yesterday, but when it had just gone onto reserve with orange light glowing, I filled up and only managed to get just over 16 litres into the tank, that meant nearly another 5 litres was still in there!!  Another 50+miles before needing to fill up.  Mine's got the full monty too. Click on the signature mpg box and you can see the detail on fuelly.

Re: mpg - dcm1000 - 16-05-12

I avarage 185 miles to a tank nearly every week using it for work which works out better then my Triumph tt600 riding them the same way. I'm happy with that as using the car costs me £60 a week for 220 miles.

Re: mpg - mcyoungy - 16-05-12

had 188 out of the tank ragging it like feck to Donington and back on Sunday. Quite please with that.

I was getting between 14-23mpg in my SAAB.....£180=£75........not good for the wallet.
I get marginally better on my FZ1.....a great 103 miles out of a tank and I ride like a fairy.
