More economical than my pickup.

Morning to all.
Thought someone might be interested.

I did a 323km ride the other day on my new(2006) kdx200. It has a 155 main jet and altitude is 900m(2700 ft), otherwise standard. I used 21 litres of gas and the last 31km were on reserve without running out. Thats 15.38km per litre. I get 7.5km/litre in my pickup, hmmmmmm.....must ride bike more.
Anyway, thought someone might be interested.
I had to carry 5l on my back, but have now fitted a 5l auxillary tank on the front.(more space for beer on the back now :)

Cheers
Dylan

PS: Avoid tar, like riding on a cheese grater :bang:

Whats all that convert to in MPG...........

 

[Mokwepa]

323km = 201.87Miles
31km = 19.37Miles
15km = 9.37Miles
7.5km = 4.68Miles

21litres = 5.42Gal
5litres = 1.32Gal
1L = 3.78Gal

Had to use a calculator for this.
