    Today I made 108 kmph, the best I have managed so far on our pathetic roads.
    Yaa, same with me.. best being 47-48 and worst being 35 (just after i got my beast first service).. i guess as of now, its 45, which is reasonable.. really wonder if i cud tuch 50 tho!!

      As we ve discussed this time and again that our so called Digiometer gives us incorrect reading more often then not and tells whatever it likes as per its mood.. theres something that can be done..

      Acc to Yamaha Riders showroom mechanic in Pune, the problem arises since while refueling, fuel is poured in with tremendous intensity, as a result the float doent always perform perfectly. So he has adviced me to almost empty the fuel level (to make it say 250 - 300 ml fuel), then refuel and give it a try..

      Doesnt looks too convincing to me,.. what say??
      it didn't work..
      i tried it once....the meter is Digital Fool Meter not Fuel Meter...

          But there will be so much difference in the mileage by driving it in 4-5rpm and 6-7rpm and above 7rpm??? looks wierd...
          do a tank full to tank full mileage check

            ..But why do u think that tank full to tank full method is better than reserve to reserve 1? Any facts that we dn know?

              its thousand time better then R To R method,
              b'coz if you had a full tank you rides on different condition, different terrines and at different speeds..
              it really works to get the actual mileage of bike..

                    the actual fuel consumption is measured by Full Tank method,
                    it need 75% city and 25% highway riding,
                    but its not possible for everyone,
                    but still we can believe on its results..
                    commonly we fill 2-3 ltr fuel rides straight for some time and calculates the average consumption...
                    it gives only some nearby figures,

                      The same can be done for R to R method. The only problem over R to R is that it depends on when you think you have hit the reserve.

                      I have calculated both ways.. and it comes out to be the same.. around 35-36 KMPL.

                          humm i am getting 50+
                          only once i got <30 kmpl(due to high speed cruising)...
                          it performs best in unleaded(normal petrol)

                            Hell man, I never got 45+. I have been using speed and gives a bit mileage compared to normal fuel. My avg speed of riding would be in between 60-80 Kmph.
                            When I maintain 50-60, I got around 44 KMPL, thats the max...

                              Its really hard for me to ride 55+ kmph,
                              but if i am riding my friends bikes then
                              its really hard to ride <100 kmph...
                              it depends on your riding how much you get,
