Mileage?
I'm new to this bike, I may get a chance to test ride one tomorrow but I'm wondering what kind of mileage I can expect from a carbed or FI bike with a moderatly agressive throttle hand.
Thanks |

Do you mean MPG, or do you mean "how many miles till the thing conks out"?
General consensus is well maintained/non-wheelied engines are good for 100,000+ miles, but by then, a lot of other bits on the bike will have given up the ghost and needed replacing. |
