On the way home today I fueled up at 208.4km [130miles] odometer reading and used 6.88L [1.77gal] this works out to 73.4mpg. this is seated upright at posted highway speed limits, without hypermileing. The gains are all from aerodynamics, windshield extension, area behind legs is filled in with styrofoam 'sadle bags', which will become rear sadlebags now that I know they work, the front forks are streamlines and some parts of the fairing are extended or modified for better aerodynamics. The front sprocket is changed from the stock 16 tooth to a 17 tooth. In the near future I will replace the stock 39 Tooth rear sprocket with a 33 tooth sprocket, this may get me down into the 2.?L/100 [80mpg] zone and at some point I hope to get 2.5L/100km [94mpg] seated upright without hypermileing... on my Suzuki GS500F motorcycle. some hypermiling and i could give those Kawasaki Ninja 250 a run for there money?
