Day 3 with the SV, all the old fuel now gone.
(Mpg 53.92) KM per Litre:19.08 Pence per mile:8.17 for 139 miles £11.35. So same distance, same journey, similar weather (cold/ice but dry) may have ridden the bike a little harder and still a saving. |
Day 4 still cold.
Well after riding the bike how I felt I seem to have manged to get the reserve light to come on, it was at 133.4 miles and I did take some back roads home. I've been running the bike allot harder then the last few days, so lets see how it affected the MPG. (Mpg 47.27) KM per Litre:16.73 Pence per mile:9.32 for 135.8miles £12.66 So it looks like I lost about 5 miles per gallon, not bad. Hopefully when the weather warms up this figure should go up as the engine is now at it most inefficient. |
Day 5 bit warmer.
(Mpg 48.41) KM per Litre:17.13 Pence per mile:9.10 136.1 Miles £12.38 Light came on a 131.8. Still been riding the bike a bit hard, so I'll see how things improve as I ease off again. Maybe even get that magic 60mpg. I've been told by a friend that works at BP if I keep the fuel in there long enough then it should clean the engine and improve the mpg more. So one more week and then its on to the Optimax or Tesco Super. |
I have had 200 miles out of a tank of gas on that bike. Ridden like a girl of course and well into the reserve tank (solid light).
Normally managed 130 before the light came on. Only manage about 100 on the CBR on the same amount of petrol. |
what fuel where you using?

130 was about average before the light came on. CBR runs on super (97 - 99RON) depending on which petrol station I am near. I have run it on regular as well and I seem to get similar mileage whatever I use TBH. |
