whats you avg mpg you gets on your bikes

[leokendall]

just like to know what the avg mpg you guys gets on your 3 wheelers.
like the atc 70, 110, 125, 200 yahamaha etc?

[Macs]

I do not think there could be any accuracy with a MPG estimate. There is so many other variables to go into the equation like temp, rider wieght, tire pressure, condition, grade of gas, terrain, size of tires etc etc

[leokendall]

I'm just thinking on average, or prob a better question is how long can a tank of gass last. Just trying to compare. i know a 250 will burn a load more than a 110 for example.

[SWIGIN]

my 110 will run weeks on a tank

but then again run time and how hard your useing it has a lot to do with it

i think this is the oddest question that keeps poping up on here....i mean even my built 350x motor in my RX can run all day on a tank. it might be about dry but i can do it.

ether way your only talking about what.... maybe 2 gallons to fill

maybe im missing something but i dont get this question at all but like i said the last time it was brought up....if you need to ask and are worried about it, you might need a new sport.

ok make this simple, line a bunch of machines up:
atc 70
atc 90
atc 110
atc 125
atc 185
atc 200 e/m/s/es
atc 250es
250sx
yamaha tri moto 125/75
yt 200e/er
and other

give them all 2 gallons of gas , which would go further and and roughly how far can u push that 2 gallons in your own driving techiques on a level surface.

[200x Basket]

my 500r uses a tank in about 2 hours.. OUCH.

Man a 70 would ride for a week on 2 gallons :D

[88 Turbo Coupe]

Don't know, and don't care. Always have plenty of mix on hand!

[WIkid500]

Well we went for a ride this summer, 70 miles going fast. lots of wide open the ytm-200 took exactly a gallon of push water to get me that far. Not bad I'd say. :)

[Russell 350X]

I know I can ride a full day on a tank of gas on my X. The big red I can run for a long time on a tank. I don't know how many miles I put on a ride, but normally alot.

[Itrike]

HHmmm with my 250r , 350x , and my sx on a trailer towing it with my pick-up at high way speeds I get around 15 mpg. so 2 galons will last abought an hour. Seriously 2 galons will last abought 6 houres riding a little less in the 250r. This is trailes and such.

[topless]

I would think hours of run time would be a better gauge of fuel usage. I don't have anyway of determining miles per gallon; no speedo or odometer.
I get 6-8 hours out of 3 gallons of hard riding.

[carscomefirst]

If it helps my 750 Shadow gets about 50mpg riding 2 up at 70mph.

[factoryX]

My tri-z at the dunes lasted for 2/4 of a day. about 6-7 hours. The banshees thast my friends where riding got about 1-2 hours of riding.

[Yamatrike400]

I can go all day with a full tank in my R. My 400 will go like a week or more on a tank.

[oscarmayer]

i'm wondering, because next summer i plan on taking my 2-3 trikes with some friends to colorado for some mountain trail riding for a week, and i'd liek to knwo how much fuel we should pack. (hence the reason i spend the $ on my 200cc motor buildup for fueling and able to easly pull a small atv trailer)

[Mosh]

Crap.You cant even begin to guage it.
My 310Z will drink a full tank around 3 gallons in about 30-40, 300 feet drag passes wide open.
My ported R will drink almost a whole tank in about 16 miles of rough trails.

The 70 and 90,crap.
I will run both of them for a month before they need gas.Each one will get about 10 hours out of a tank.

Who cares.Fill em up and ride.
When in doubt,take more than you need.Some bum on the trail will always need some.LOL.
Or start a toasty fire!

[fla 2-stroke]

my 86r with a 39 air striker can go about 25-30 miles on a tank on fast flat trails.my 85 350x will go about 48-55 miles on a full tank.my 83 300r is a gas sucker.Its power is at high rpms so you are in to it all day.most I get is 15-20 max.funny thing is that my strong running 87 trx250r gets less miles than the 86r does with a smaller carb.just like cars,they are all about how you drive them.I have been doing longer loops lately and unless I am on the 350x I carry 2.5 gallons in my 6 pack rack.

[Twilight]

My Honda Pilot will get about 10miles a gallon in a 2gal tank... ugh

My Honda 200e gets about 45-50miles to a tank

[njeffery]

I can ride all day in the sand with 3-4 gallons of gas(1986 tri-z 250cc).
I don't ride too hard though.

[oscarmayer]

so i can figure about 25-30 miles per tank. (mountian trails pulling a trailer about 250 extra lbs. ok. sounds fair.

[factoryX]

it totally depends on how you ride. I rode my 200x with a cobra on it hard 4-5 hours and burnt 1/4 of a tank! the 200x is probably the best sport bike for gas milage. you can run like a raped ape for ever and still have gas in the tank. My friends will last for 4 days! he does not ride hard but he rides it almost every day in winter.

[SCRAMCHARGER318]

when my 86 250sx was stock with a little bigger main jet would get 5 full hours of anything you can throw at it, and im 210 pounds, now with a cobra exhuast and a ricks hot shot cdi box (like msd ignition for atv's) and no air box lid now i get 5 1/2 hours per tank of 93 octane.

My 1984 ATC 125M will go FOREVER on a tank of gas. I have no idea of what the MPG is. I'm going to guess that its somewhere around 75mpg but I have no way of knowing. I have no odometer. I can tell you that it'll pretty easily get 8 fairly hard hours of use on a gallon of fuel. The last time I took it on a long ride I packed a 1 gallon gas can just in case. Rode for a full day. Had no use for the spare fuel. This was with a leaky carb too.... I'm fairly sure that it leaked more fuel on the ground than it burned. I recently ordered a $17 replacement carb off of Amazon and the machine is torn down in the garage at the moment. Once I get it all put together I'm sure the economy will only improve. TLDR? Fuel economy on the little 125cc or less machines is really really good.
