How does he Virage compare to our bike? I like it.

You know, If I hadn't seen the GZ i probably would have bought one... BUT, i love the GZ... Looking at them side by side and front and rear for that matter the GZ is lower, wider, longer and phatter :tup: She's got better legs by a longgg way too a 13 litre fuel tank!! thats about 370 klms on 10 litres BEFORE reserve!! (I'll let you do the math :neener: )

230 miles on 2.6 gallons. (88MPG)

Is that right????

My personal mileage is around 195 miles on 2.5 gallons. (69MPG)

hehehehe isn't the metric system, Imperial and USMPG FANTASTIC, I'm sure it was devised to confuse the hell out of us!!!!!

OK here we go.....

37Klms = 22Miles and Im getting that per Litre (L), therefore 1Litre = about 0.26 USG, 1USGal = 3.78L

SO....... I'm getting roughly 1/0.26 x 22 = 84M/USG (or easier 22/0.26= 84)

And I'm a pilot!! how do you think I go, going from a Piper Warrior (US) to a French (EADS) Tobago!!! dont you think the converter is smoking then!!!!!! :cuss:

Grew up with the Imperail system and had to switch to Metric. Had to also know the U.S. System as well. I would have been lost without a calculator that did conversions. I still think in Imperial MPG and Lbs for weight. And some people wonder why us old folks get confused. lol.

Thank the gods for (as you say) calculators AND the internet :)

I get approx 85 mpg up here in toronto on my gz . I have converted from metric as water warrior has stated approx 160 km on 5 liters.

[Aussie_Al1]

Yeap, thats pretty close to my 84M/USGal, and 180Klm on 5 LITRES :neener:

P.S I think i put in a quick conversion in a previous post OR you can add to those, 3.78 X 22 = 84-ish too.
