Anyone else is this low? I used to get around 50-60 before the flash When mine was new, I was getting about 56mpg. Since changing out the airbox and flashing a tune, I'm down to 43mpg. I'd assume putting the pipe on and re-tuning again (thus, even more power) should drop it down to what you're seeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joaoduarte Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 56mpg after akra ti, dna air filter and lid, r6 thtottle tube, power commander V tuned with autotune, mine is a 2018 model, got o2 sensor delete also, i dont understand how with flash people gets so bad fuel milage, even when i crack down the trottle i always get really good mpg, in my case as iam from Portugal i get like 4,3 litres/100 Km, wich is really really good.

bartman5impson Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 I've gotten 55 mpg average over the past thousandish miles I tend to keep it at 3k-4.5k rpm when cruising and 4.5k-7k when spirited riding That's with a full exhaust, o2 delete, and EJK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msb06c Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 I'm a few weeks away from a 1300 mile ride, almost all of it highway. I'll track my fuel and see how I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msb06c Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Ok guys well the verdict is in. The ride itself wasn't the most exciting ride but goddamn was the trip STILL A RIOT. It really got me thinking about some serious touring in my future. It was a good "dry run" so to speak! Can't wait to get some motocamping under my belt this fall/winter season! So... Not only did I move my bike for about 1/4 the cost of "the pros" (OG estimated budget: $350 {Actual All-in cost: $250} vs $800 MIN to ship the bike, realistically more like $1000 to pick up in BK NYC) I bought a few farkles (rok straps, dry bag, cramp buster) that already paid for themselves. All in all I went through approximately 24 gallons of fuel over a distance of approx 1400 miles. That puts me at avg = 60 mpg and that was LOADED THE f@#k UP and plenty of wrist wringing on the highway. I think if I tried to squeeze some miles out of my fuel I could have easily averaged over 70 mpg. Bike - 2018 MT07. "Performance mods" = Akra Carbon pipe, 2WDW Tune for said Akra Carbon, and the snorkle pulled. That's it. I specifically planned my stops around E0 pure fuel because it's impossible to come by in NYC and I'm ALWAYS going to take the pure fuel if/when it's an option. The bike is tuned for 91 gas, and I would take 90 or 91 E0 depending on what was available. My local pump is 90 so thats what I'll be using). I still can't believe how cheap this thing is to run and maintain. I want a faster and fancier bike but I know it's a mistake 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigturbomax Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Im always shocked at how efficient this thing is for how hard it pulls and fun it is to crack the throttle lol! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msb06c Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Yeah man thats what I'm saying. I was LOADED, both with a fair amount of weight but substantial drag as well, and pretty much ripping highway 70-85 all day, I was pretty shocked. Bike never even gave a second thought, I just personally didn't feel comfortable traveling any faster totally loaded with stock brakes and suspension lol. In my preliminary budgeting estimations, I intentionally underestimated my mpg (I used 50 mpg based on what I read here) and overestimated the price of fuel. Don't worry... that extra $100 in the budget surplus will go directly to the bike It's making me seriously considering going "all-in" on the MT and turning it into a quasi-touring bike. We'll see...

rfmueller Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Scorpion Serket Taper Exhaust, 2wdw tune, no snorkel. Total rider wt with trip gear: ~ 205 pounds. Normal road trip, including about 25% interstate (80 - 90 mph), mountains, hail, wind, fast, slow, medium, hot, COLD, occasionally a tad heavy on the throttle, etc: 63mpg (give or take 3mpg). These were extreme variations from a normal long road trip> A Yellowstone ride once yielded 68 mph: Yellowstone is 40 - 50 mph and surrounding areas usually less than 65mph. High head wind trips have yielded 55mpg. Ambient temp makes a big difference too. The hotter the temp, the higher the MPG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
