I'd estimate I get around 80 or thereabouts. I'm getting 65mpg out of the busa my mates 125 gets 130mpg 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh I've only done 470 miles since I got it and it doesn't seem to be any more used than when I bought it so no idea how long the rear tyre will last nor how many miles were already on it when I got it 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it's like anything you use all the power all the time its gonna cost but it is nice when you do. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I've actually used anywhere near all the power of the bike it's just way too fast to do it safely on the road most of the time. It normally hovers around the 3-6k rpm mark and by god the induction sound it makes at those revs is intoxicating so heaven knows what I'll make of it when I do start riding it like it was intended to be ridden 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't worry about it i just want to know how far i can go on a tank of fuel and knowing the MPG is just a byproduct of knowing that 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
