! Wow. Have you drilled the filler tube? Mine was still running fine when I got 23 ltrs in but I filler up as I had to use the M40 and did not want to have it die in the fast lane in busy traffic.

Filled the girl up north of london, went to Brighton, Hove, Portsmouth, Poole, Exeter and filled her up again at Bodmin in Cornwall after 328 miles, took 19.6 liters. Good or what?
Had similar in the North, 260 miles done and filled her up with 12.9 liters. Thank god for that as they were charging �1.67/ltr.

Have you got peddles fitted or a sail? !!!!!!!

I think you've made some mistake. Or your clocks are set to km. 328 miles/19.6ltr is 76mpg, which would surprise me but I wouldn't call impossible. However 260 miles/12.9ltr is 92mpg, and I flat out don't believe that.

Pure fiction... 22.9 litres for 260 miles would be more like it, certainly for my bike.

252 miles and filled up with 18.5 litres on Friday morning. Was taking is easy in and out of work.

Guys,

my clocks are ok and i never said i was going flat out. All i know is that i got well over 300 miles out of a tank full of petrol and still had some spare. Surprised me as well. Thought i was running on fumes. But so close to home i thought sod it.
And along those single track roads up north you hardly ever get over 50. Try it and you might just be suprised what the bike can do. When travelling, why the hurry?
More dissappointing was the wear of the Siracs. Rear to shot and front not far of. Under 5K.

Mine too. Whenever I bother working out my mpg I also calculate the theoretical range for 23l, it's pretty much always round the 260-270 mile mark, regardless of the sort of roads I've been riding.

Away on a little trip at the moment, two up and loaded up, full panniers and dry bag. Surprisingly the mpg hasn't been effected too much. Still managed to get over 200 miles before reserve started to flash.

All these people with 60+mpg, you are aware that after you have run the bike in you can open the throttle more? ;)
I hit my best of 52mpg the other week, now it's back to the normal 47.
