15-02-10, 02:48 PM

My sv650 has decided to cost me a bomb drinking fuel alot now for a reason i do not know.

Air filter is clean
plugs changed
fuel lines checked
choke butterflies open

fuel pressure too high? any ideas?

Tyres?

Brakes?

Are you Ranting it?

Are the carbs/carb bodies balanced?

tyres pumped brakes not binding and its fuel injection havnt checked if they are balanced but open up the same with the air filter out and opening the throttle

and thats a 10mile commute round london even giving it full beans and the extreme cold has never made it drop this low before

Did you buy the bike second hand? It might be mapped for a uprated filter/ Zorst

How many miles does everyone get out of a tank?

Also how many miles roughly do you get on fuel light?

should get easy 100 - 120 to the light.
