Fill date Distance Fill amount Price MPG Details
2009-10-01 267.1 mi. 3.493 US gal $2.239 76.47 US Due to having my Ninja back in service, this may be my last fillup with this bike.
2009-09-07 198.4 mi. 2.538 US gal $2.359 78.17 US Definitely switched to Shell this tank.
2009-08-24 243.8 mi. 3.072 US gal $2.549 79.36 US ETA: I believe I went back to Shell on this tank, but can't recall correctly.
2009-08-15 246.6 mi. 3.075 US gal $2.469 80.2 US
2009-08-09 200.9 mi. 2.541 US gal $2.629 79.06 US
2009-08-01 251.4 mi. 3.18 US gal $2.499 79.06 US
2009-07-25 435.2 mi. 5.38 US gal $2.389 80.89 US 2 fillups, one partial the other whole. Switching from Shell to BP to test FE difference, if any.
2009-07-10 263.6 mi. 3.231 US gal $2.449 81.58 US PEAK!
2009-07-01 270.1 mi. 3.331 US gal $2.599 81.09 US And that's as far as it will go. It was sputtering as I pulled into the gas station, so I guess 3.3 gallons is the limit.

(Suzuki claims 3.4)
2009-06-21 171.1 mi. 2.134 US gal $2.599 80.18 US And thus I break 80mpg.
2009-06-14 249.6 mi. 3.134 US gal $2.699 79.64 US And higher still.
2009-06-06 235.5 mi. 2.986 US gal $2.859 78.87 US And higher.
2009-05-29 245.8 mi. 3.15 US gal $2.659 78.03 US And the bar doth raise higher.
2009-05-20 189 mi. 2.434 US gal $2.439 77.65 US Going back to resetting the trip odo as of this tank.
2009-05-09 382 mi. 5.041 US gal $2.259 75.78 US 4929 miles on trip odo.
2009-05-03 381 mi. 4.969 US gal $2.059 76.68 US 4547 on trip odo.
2009-04-25 231 mi. 3.097 US gal $1.859 74.59 US 4166 miles on trip odo.
2009-04-18 212 mi. 3.007 US gal $1.979 70.5 US 3935 miles on trip odo.

2009-03-29 219 mi. 2.983 US gal $1.999 73.42 US 3323 miles on trip odo.

This was a shocker, as the weather has been bad, and I did some bad stop-go driving in a city, and a blast up the highway. (Highway = less FE)
2009-03-26 210 mi. 3.014 US gal $2.099 69.67 US 3104 miles on trip odo

2009-03-15 192 mi. 2.83 US gal $1.799 67.84 US 2756 miles on trip odo.

Valves adjusted the day before this fillup.

2009-03-03 140 mi. 2.201 US gal $1.799 63.61 US 2420 miles on trip odo.

2009-02-08 111 mi. 1.888 US gal $1.689 58.79 US 2,122 miles on trip odo.

Shortly after this fill I removed the trike kit I had been using. Ahh 2-wheeled freedom once more.

2009-01-31 84 mi. 1.789 US gal $1.739 46.95 US 1954 miles on trip odo.

SNOW!! SPINNING TIRES!! BALLS!!
2009-01-23 105 mi. 1.886 US gal $1.819 55.67 US 1870 miles on trip odo.
2009-01-04 147 mi. 2.391 US gal $1.799 61.48 US 1765 miles on trip odo.
2008-12-27 113 mi. 2.074 US gal $1.499 54.48 US 1618 miles on trip odo.
2008-12-20 134 mi. 2.344 US gal $1.639 57.17 US 1505 miles on trip odo.

Yeck... Horrible mileage. But it's been below 20F almost the whole week...
2008-12-13 154 mi. 2.845 US gal $1.76 54.13 US Added a trike kit to handle snow half way through this tank, and it's taking a noticeable toll on my acceleration, as I'm now technically running at GVWR full time. I expect it to drop off, but hopefully not too much.

Edit: Was not expecting that much drop...

1371 miles on trip odo.
2008-11-30 136 mi. 2.1 US gal $1.749 64.76 US 1217 miles on trip odo.
2008-11-23 91 mi. 1.423 US gal $1.69 63.95 US 1081 miles on trip odo.
2008-11-17 200 mi. 2.873 US gal $1.79 69.61 US Full fillup. This tank included 2 40+ mile roundtrips over hilly terrain in the cold, but with the engine running slightly over-hot the whole way, so I think my fuel economy is going to drop significantly over the next tank as I don't plan on doing any extended driving, and work is less than 4 miles away. I barely get up to temp even with the radiator block on the way in, and only after I'm half-way home. (traffic vs. no traffic)

990 miles on trip odo.
2008-11-16 60 mi. 0.931 US gal $1.72 64.45 US This was an emergency fillup, because I have no money, and I had to scrape together some change to put a little in the tank to move around.

I have somewhere around 970 on the odo right now, next fillup will factor in this one for mileage.
2008-11-08 190 mi. 2.794 US gal $1.899 68 US Brrr, friggin' cold here. But my radiator block is in place, and at the ~45F temps here, it got just hot enough to kick on the cooling fan.

730 miles on trip odo.
2008-10-27 184 mi. 2.702 US gal $2.299 68.1 US Full fillup this time, 90-day should be about good now.

540 miles on trip odo.

Added 40 miles from previous trip to balance readings.
2008-10-17 148 mi. 2.121 US gal $2.639 69.78 US Not a full tank fillup, as I've just gotten tired of sloshing the tank to get it filled completely up. Average should level out within the next several tanks.

396 miles on trip odo.

Moving 40 miles to following trip to balance out readings slightly.
2008-10-10 208 mi. 2.801 US gal $3.249 74.26 US This is the first tank in my multiple-tank calculating test, so the mileage may be a bit off, but will average out with the next fillup. My per-tank average was around 71.7
