Re: what's your gas milage, 80 mpg here quite happy

+1 on what Jerry said. You're gonna have to help yourself just a TINY bit. :)

In general, the chain AND sprockets ALL wear...

Re: what's your gas milage, 80 mpg here quite happy

Last time I was in Ga. with the bike, another GZ'er got to test mine and was really impressed. I thought he was going...

Re: what's your gas milage, 80 mpg here quite happy

Re: what's your gas milage, 80 mpg here quite happy

To put things into perspective (hopefully):
When filling your bike, the difference between 1.0 gal and 1.1 gal. is 10% roughly.
