Let's talk mileage.

[Robb]

My little 250cc Super Sherpa was getting 75-80 mpg last summer, which amazed me, considering that's pretty much around town at slow speeds.

The bigger KTM 640 is getting around 48. Of course, it's got a 7.5 gallon tank, so range is improved.

What are you getting?

1. My 2006 Vespa LX 150 gets 65 mpg

I can fill it Sunday evening and if all I do is go to work and back I can get by until Thursday after work before I must feed the scoot again.

The scooter holds about 1.2 gallons.

2. GS750e - I get about 45.

... but from an economy perspective, my riding style could stand improvement. :dilemma:

[htuttle]

3. My Chetak gets 90-105 mpg...

...depending on how much fun I have driving it.

4. It depends

On my riding habits and conditions on any given day. If I'm not bucking a big headwind and I can stay out of the throttle, I can get better than 50 mpg on my Sportster out on the highway, which is where I ride 90% of the time. I've seen 55-57 mpg on a regular basis.

On the other hand, if I'm in a mood to get after it, I can twist it down to 45mpg in short order. Haven't really seen it get much worse than that.

All in all, pretty good for a 900cc class bike :)

5. average around 70 mpg

'05 Honda Reflex

[Ganja Ninja]

6. My Triumph Bonneville gets 48 mpg on mostly country driving.

[Lowell]

7. I get 50 MPG in my FXDC-I

I really love fuel injection. Just when I thought nothing could be better than electric start they come out with EFI. I'm getting around 42 in town and 50+ on the interstate.

8. My full dress Harley averages about 42

on my commute, but when I take my annual rides, usually thru Oregon and Washington and vicinity, I can pull 50 when the speed limits are about 60 mph

9. 40 in the city, about 48 on the highway.

'99 Triumph Thunderbird, 900cc.

[motocicleta]

10. about 45mpg on my 2000 Ducati 750ss

I haven't had it long enough to go for any long cruises, though.

11. Buell Blast

About 62 miles to the gallon. It would do a little better if I lost some weight but it is so fun to ride, i hardly walk anyplace any more

[Arger68]

12. My '84 Honda Magna 700cc

gets in the mid 30's. My '05 Civic does better than that!

[MadHound]

13. My Bajaj Chetak gets around 100mpg n/t

[tibbir]

14. My Honda Metropolitan

(all 49cc of it) gets about 110-120, which is good since the tank is only 1.3 gallons.

15. My Honda Elite gets 80-100 mpg

I know it is 80cc as opposed to your 50 cc engine and I only have had it about a month. Thus I am still learning on how to fill it. I have calculated anywhere from 80 -120 mpg, I am leaning to 100 mpg as I learn to fill the tank to the same spot. My 80 mpg calculation was based on some early fill ups as I learn how to fill the tank, but I also live in the mountains of Pennsylvania, so less then 100 mpg was assumed. Now that I have had my 80 cc for a month and consistently filling it to the same spot in the tank I am only doing now, so all told I expect the 100 mpg top become the norm.

17. More recent testing shows 110mpg

Through I have had 120mpg (But that is downhill). Johnstown is "Uphill" from Pittsburgh.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

16. My Honda Reflex (250cc) gets about 70. nt

[NightHawk63]

18. My '95 Honda NightHawk gets about 44 on the road. (nt)

19. Deleted post n/t

20. 220+ mpg on my motorized bicycle. Many of the first motorcycles were motorized bicycles.

I have been experimenting with motorized bicycles. I can get over 220 mpg in the city with a 25cc four stroke engine, and a top speed of 24mph.

In reality, it’s a hybrid vehicle. I help by pedaling from a dead stop.
Human power takes the place of an electric motor.

21. I have a Suzuki Burgman 400 scooter

on my best tank I got 77 MPG on average I get 65 MPG.

[Froward69]

22. 56 mpg Harley Softtail

6 speed, 6 gal tank. stock 80ci. Jetted for alternative fuels.

[Vincardog]

23. BMW R100R gets 30 MPG but it does it real fast

[ThomWV]

24. Harley Davidson Deuce (injected), 45 mpg with spirited riding

Speeds up to about 100 mph, mountain twisties where there's lots of on/off throtle, a good bit of 60mph country roads, over all the milage stays about the same at 45 mpg. On Interstate highway holding it right at 70 it gets closer to 50mpg, but I don't do much of that. It has a trip odometer and I like to refill at 180 miles, but I don't start getting antsy until 200. It has a 4.9 gallon tank.

25. about 40 on the ST13. NT
