I suspect that my Fazer runs rich too then. My bike is also restricted, and on day to day riding (into Uni and back), I only get about 45 - 50mpg. A bit of a wakeup call from the 78mpg I got out of my Varadero 125!!


I never used to get more than 65mpg from my Varadero ever! Rag it, drive it like a granny, nothing!

Carbs or injection? I had a carbs model, fitted a 15 tooth front sprocket, and took the baffle out of the airbox to improve flow. Knocked revs down by about 1000 rpm for a given speed. I thought that 78mpg was pretty good for an '04 ridden aggressively seeing as the newer ones are advertised at 90mpg!
