When you guys are filling up do you go all the way to the top of the tank? I've been following the instructions in the manual which say to stop short of the top to allow for venting. Which makes it slightly difficult to accurately measure MPG.

With any motorcycle you are gonna get inaccuracies due to filling the tank up to different levels. The key is to keep a running average of your MPG. Over the course of a few tanks you should get a pretty good idea of what you're getting.

Sorry, couldn't resist. That IS good mileage. I'm guessing your commute is without a lot of stop and go ?? |
He hypermiles his GZ.
Downhill in neutral both directions. Turns the engine off at stop lights. Duck walks into and out of parking LOTS. Either that, or he just forgets to set the tripmeter every other fill-up. :lol: ;) |
Easyrider and Patrick you've got me pegged, my driving may explain why all those drivers are honking and waving at me or are they shacking their fist as they fly by!
I fill it to the bottom of the filler neck flange so the tank isn't completely full. But because so far I'm using the same gas station in my neighborhood and placing the bike in the same location when I fill-up I'm fairly certain of mitigating a few of the variables. This is the data from only a few fill-ups and I'm sure over the years I'll gather enough information to postulate a more accurate mileage figure. |

I wish I could post a link to my gas mileage file. Then, you guys could see my nifty little gas price graph and follow along with my maintenance dates and such.
Anyway webhosting places that accept files that aren't pictures? |
