    My Ninja 250 gets 70-80 mpg the way i usually ride it. I once got 90 mpg on a tank, but that was no fun at all. Worst ever mileage was on a very fast (for me) group ride where the next smallest bike was a 750: 58 mpg. Sure, they could leave me on the uphills and straights, but i could catch them in the twisties.

    DAYAMN!!! I usually get around 100 miles on a tank with the TL-R. I once pushed it to 127 before I filled. But I've also gotten as little as 50 miles on a tank on a coupla occasions. One being a track day, the other I don't wanna discuss here...

    My 929 religiously gets around 160 miles per tank before the "reserve light" comes on. Then its good for no more than 20 to 30 more.

    If I drive like a grandpa then it would got to about 180.....

    Oh wait thats how I usually drive so...

    Lets just say the last tank I got 150..... ooops.... sorry officers.

    MY ZRX 1200 gets about 37 mpg average.
    For highway riding, about 42 mpg.
    For twisties, about 33 mpg.

    A 5.3 gallon tank total

    On average I get ~160 miles before reserve (4.2*37). My reserve is 1.1 gallons, so it is good for another 40 miles.

    For long rides I wish I had a bigger tank! I had to fill up first at all our gas stops in NS.

    Cool. Is that a real degree? Hehe. Sounds like a very fun job though!

    I got a B.S. in engineering, I thought engineering was all fame and fortune (I was wrong). I had a good GPA and I can't find an entry-level engineering job anywhere. Where is my 6-figure salary?!

    Oh well, guess I will have to go on another vacation to Nova Scotia!
