Well, mileage figures are not questionable. Most of the new bikes are treated with proper care for initial few kms. This method used to calculate mileage has certain limitations, but it's wrong to say digital console is guessing mileage. Most modern age cars use this method to indicate either mileage/distance to empty, that figure may not be 100% accurate, but if you continue with same driving style/driving conditions.. then that figure is spot on (observed this with rental cars I drove).Originally posted by NikhilB View Post@Assassin
Measured over what period? A couple of seconds? minutes? Past couple of Kms?
The time period still matters, even though it has been mathematically eliminated
If it is instantaneous,
will it show 0 if I rev it on neutral for a couple of minutes?
also, will it show infinity if I drag the bike with my feet (on neutral, ingnition on but engine off)?
EDIT: I do not intend to argue. It is just to highlight that we should not read too much into the console figures and wait for some full-tank to full-tank readings.
These guys may not get the same mileage through out the life of bike, but it's safe to assume that 30kmpl is easily achievable even with spirited riding.Let's bring down the monster of corruption to it's knees.. please visit http://ipaidabribe.com/Comment

You got me wrong.Originally posted by vrugonnab View Post
I meant to say that I (personally speaking) wouldn't rely on instantaneous figures (simply because I can "instantaneously" run at 50kmph, with a small enough instance).
Again, I'm not saying the console is spitting out bull crap. Just that it may not be representative of a true average FE.
Peace.
PS: How about we move on by dicussing more about the bike and less about this figure? (Disclaimer: Personal opinion only)I like 'em Naked
Blah Blah Blah!
Reason is not automatic. Those who choose not to recognise it, can't be conquered by it.

Hey guys,
I want to put a high decibel horn on my Duke. This would most probably be a double horn and i might have to use a harness. Will it by any chance conflict with the warranty terms of the electrical's?Hero Honda Karizma

Let me help you out here ;-)Originally posted by Ri$hi View Post
I am from chennai and I booked my duke 200 at adayar KTM probiking on Feb 24th 2012 (that's exactly a week ago). I was told that it would take a minimum of 50 days for me and also if you delay in booking the days might just add up...
So the max waiting time is 90 days... so keep your fingers crossed...
i ll be getting my duke before ya ;-) ;-)
