Average MPG.....?

[ArizonaKev]

I recently picked up a 2001 GZ250, and am having trouble finding any authoritative info on the mpg rating for the bike. I see that the new ones (2009) are rated at 82 mpg - do the older ones have a similar mpg rating?

If anyone has any personal experience or figures they would like to post, I would appreciate it. Of course, I plan on figuring out my personal mileage by doing the whole fill the tank, reset the trip odometer, compare miles to fuel used thing - I was just wondering what other people are getting so I have an idea of about where I can expect to be.

Thanks all....
