Hey, I have been wondering what kinda MPGs everyone is getting with their setups. Especially kitted bikes. My treats reed kit is getting around 40MPG. This is a shock to me after getting 40000MPG on my Batavus.

45ish on my gila e50. Worst I've had, but I've seen worse. Tom's polini is a thirsty beast.

My batavus ruled. First summer I filled that tank like 4 times.

However, polini gets like 35.

The kitted Hobbits gets 25mpg...if you change out the stock carb, it gets like 65mpg

The Kitted Foxi gets like 40mpg

I think ciao still gets like 1928 MPG, but it's only got the 13mm carb. I think vespas might be the besta when it comes to MPG:quickness.

Dang, Mark, with a 1.25 liter tank and 210 mpg on a Solex, you must so one Helluva lot of riding to use a whole tank in a mere 3 months. Sure you don't have a gas leak?? Smiff

Ohhh yeah, my MK80 was in the low 40s. I could ride to KC and almost back (a bit over 60 miles) on 1.5 gallons. Honestly, using Motul 800, my Mag was more expensive to run than my car was, since my car gets 30-something mpg and I don't have to dump expensive oil in it every time I fill up.

about 40mpg on the tomos, and 90 to 110mpg on the rat bike.

I get about 45 on the free spirit... soon to decrease when I port the head, jet it, and add new reed valves

Redacted Justin · « **Reply #11 on:** August 03, 2010, 11:25:10 AM »

New reed valves? What kit is on it?

Also, you port cylinders, not heads.

Crazy Harry · « **Reply #15 on:** August 03, 2010, 05:10:13 PM »

Yeah.. just a little excited is all... need to lay off upgrades for a bit. Although I do need some side covers, and fenders...

Tom! · « **Reply #16 on:** August 03, 2010, 05:26:07 PM »

Dick Gozinya · « **Reply #17 on:** August 04, 2010, 01:36:03 AM »
