KTM 400EXC Range

[kmccune]

I went to the KTM dealer yesterday and saw my first 400EXC SWEEET :cool:

What range can I expect out of the 2.3 gallon tank? I searched DRN and could not find anything on this topic.

Thanks
Kevin

If it's anything like my 520, the range varies greatly depending on how you're riding. When I'm just cruising along a logging road, I get about 30 mpg; when I'm at the track or really getting on it, my mileage drops almost in half.

I tend to take many day-long rides, so I bought the tank from the MXC. Bolts right on, and adds another gallon or so capacity. It seems to be only about an inch wider, too - not that big a deal.

I don't own a 4-stroker, but my dealer says you should be able to get around 60 miles of racing if jetted right.

But I've seen this question before and many seem to be topping out at around 50. I did a 55 mile loop with a friend on a 400. He was on fumes when we got to a gas station, I had at least a gallon left in my 250.

I guess both IMS and Clarke make big tanks, and the MXC is available too.

53 mles of hard trail riding and I had to switch it over to reserve. That was my max!

My 400exc can hit a 160km range on roads and highways. ( Converted to Motard ) Mileage does reduce by 20km if i ride it hard. Average comsumption is 21km per litre of fuel.

Thanks for the info. I was thinking it should be 25 or so depending on terrain.

I think I need one ... my wife even thinks so :cool:
