    Mate, the numbers seem to be on the lower side. The worst I got before the 1st service/1000kms is around 35kmpl. The ride included 80% traffic and 20% highway. 26kmpl is something skeptical for this engine. Assuming there's nothing wrong with the quality of the fuel and the bike, I think the worst case mileage should be something between 31kmpl to 33kmpl.

    Cheers!
    My thoughts exactly. I've been conscious of tyre pressure so I know for sure that hasn't impacted the FE.

    Just got the the first service done so will monitor it for some time more before going to the SC to get them to check it

      I don't have the manual on me. Someone please mention the recommended tyre pressure

          When I rode 120kmph+ continously for 1hr on expressway console showed 23kmpl.

          After reseting meter when I rode 80-100 for half an hr console showed 37kmpl.

          Before entering heavy traffic conditions of city again I reset meter and rode around 20km then console showed 28kmpl.
          Ride your bike between 3.5k to 4.5k rpm, and my bike when I bought new and I filled 5 litres the bike goes 145 km (approx 27kmpl) on odo till the trip F is shown on console and the average was 34kmpl, and when I check with 1 litre fuel it goes 44km and in console it's shows 36kmpl

            I am happy with combination of power and mielage of fz25. Measured many times manually by tankful method and trip f to trip f, given more than 38kmpl (more than console display).

            During tours i consider minimum tank range to 420km (12 x 35 = 420) excluding 2.5 litres reserve (last bar blink)

              I agree. I get 41 consistently. Measured full tank to full tank. This is exclusively in city use with a mix of moving and bad traffic. Mostly between 50 to 75kmph. Very short bursts to 100. For the performance from a small engine can't ask for more.

                Done 3500 kms , average mileage of 3500kms is 41kmpl
                Brakes:- gone to a local mechanic today to rub brake pads with sand paper(it worked charm for front brake)(sharp & progressive bite)
                Rear brakes are just crazy now too much feedback(1.Dont do DIY with Rear Disc Brake its a mess when doing assembly)(cost Rs80)

                    As per the manual the last bar blinks when there is approx 2.1 litre of fuel. It's when the odo starts to display "F". Also I'm getting more than 40 kmpl consistently. Today bike 1st service is done at 1020 km. Have to see how that will affect mileage. But riding the bike below 5k rpm gives great mileage in excess of 45kmpl on highways.
