Miles Per Gallon...?

[Rank Bajin]

Hi, just curious what everyone else calculates their gas mileage to be.

Most times with my very conservative right hand I will see about 55-62 mpg.

Maybe that's because I never rev. beyond 6k. But suits me fine :) :)

Hey Rank, in my experience with the MP3 500.. riding it quite spiritedly in So. Cal. and on freeways.... I never saw below 45mpg... while cruising and taking it easy, I also saw 55+

Just getting back in the right groove.........Takes me a while sometimes.

Recently removed airbox completely installing a NAPA paper filter. this has changed the lower rpm characteristics quite a bit. Bottom end torque certainly much more pronounced, with sweeter 'thumper' exhaust note too.

will be measuring MPG again shortly, and will post results.

should be near my S500 60 mpg But if youre Dog crated and hauling 6 ft tables or triking the thing like Ms Smurf your mileage will Vary Alot

My 250 MP3 get's 65-70 mpg cruising @ 65 mph.
My 400 MP3 get's 60 mpg cruising @ 65-70 mpg.
Our 500GT got 50-55 mpg riding 2up & loaded @ 65-70 mph. But I've since put a faux tow-pac trike kit on it and it's getting 48 mpg @ 65 mph for the wife.
