miles/kilometers per tank?

Post by NorCalRyda »

wuddup fellas, just wanted to know what kinda distance you guys are getting per fill up? as some of you know ive only had my bike (97' yzf750r) for a short time but ive had a few bikes before (86' vf1000r, 98' zx-6r, 99' zx-9r). while riding the yzf750 ive noticed that ive been getting bad gas milage compared to the other bikes ive owned. im only getting around 100miles/160kilometers per fill up (92 octane) on the yzf750. on my other bikes i was getting well past 300+ miles per tank. <p></p><i></i>

Hi there,<br>The fuel light comes on at about 135 miles on my '96 YZF750R. So about 150 -160 till a dry tank I guess. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :banana --><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ... ananna.gif ALT=":banana"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :cheers --><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ...
