Under the circumstances, it might be a good idea to give it a shot of carb. cleaner, just as a vaccine, of sorts. Seafoam is good for that.
Secondly, don't be too disappointed with your mileage just yet. On a ~3 gal fill, a few ounces one way or the other make a big difference in the math. Are you sure it was filled to the same point when you got it as you filled it to the next time?
Anyhow, on the side stand, fill it each time until the gas just touches the lowest point of the neck inside the tank and figure it again the next couple of fills. I never got less than 60; riding style tended toward conserviative. |
I took your advice and ran the Berrymans through, Easy, it 'seemed' to make a bigger difference than the Seafoam I ran through when I first got the bike. The next few tankfulls have yeilded about 10 miles per gallon more in economy. Going to keep an eye on it, and report back.
