Finally got 100 miles out of a tank of fuel ?? 100.8 to be precise. Was risking it a bit waiting that long but wanted to make it into triple digits once haha
You got a 2.5 Gallon tank on that bike, or can't you get it out of second, 100.8 to the tank full FFS. :eek
Reading up in FOC-U a lot FZ1 riders are getting between 48 and 52 MPG
I love the Mighty Thous but could not put up with 100 miles per tank full, its not the cost as much as the bloody inconvenience of spending so much riding time looking for and sitting on garage forecourts.
You must be filling up every 3 motorway service stations on long runs.
If you don't want to ride at much more than 130 mph I would suggest a FZS 600 then at least double + your miles to the gallon. and possibly get 230 from a tank full. :fish

Haha nah it just doesn't do many miles to the gallon, never has done but has been worse since I've had it tuned. Doesn't bother me to be honest as I bought it for fun not for MPG. I don't do many long runs and its only £15 for a full tank so still works out cheaper than the car. Thinking about it I only used to get 150 miles to a tank on my yzf600r when I was hooning it and about 200 when behaving
