    Thats a 2.6 gallon tank over 45 + miles is about 17 + mpg. Depends on how much roosting is in between...
    The main is a 145. needle is stock in the 3rd position. pilot is stock. I take the hard way there over lots of STEEP and rocky hills with some small dunes just outside of town and the asy way back. There is everything from 1st gear on hills to 4th on the trails. The way back is w.f.o. on fireroad. not much roosting on the way back as I usually have some drinks in town. Randsburg, Ca is awesome!
    own:

    I have license on a 1982 Honda XL500R. I've been riding it a lot more lately. It gets 60 miles per gallon. For the last 2 years I've been driving a full size Bronco and getting 10 miles per gallon- spending almost $600 per month on gas. I also picked up a Contour that gets 32 miles per gallon so I'm in good shape now. Even with the increase in gas I'm still spending hundreds less per month than I'm used to.
