69 mpg....wow didn't know it would be that good!
Did my second fill up today after clocking up 350 miles since new and just did the maths and am getting 69.2 mpg out of my SV650!!!! I didn't expect it to be anywhere near that economical even though I am keeping the revs under 6-7k (can't keep under 5k its just impossible :rolleyes:)
Am i right to be impressed or is this about normal for a SV650?!?? |

wow yeah are you sure you've got that right.

Not really SV related, but the TT commentators said McGuinness was getting 17-18mpg on his blade doing 130mph average speed laps. Not sure if that accurate though, but amazed me :)

I did pretty much 70mph the whole way up the A1 to croft and back. |

Having said the above can't wait to give it a little more oomph as keeping those revs around 5k is slowly become more frustrating |

Yeah, I got close to 70mpg on a run from manchester to Oxford. Managed to get it down to about 38mpg when thrashing her though ;-)
