Fuel went from 180miles to a tank to hitting reserve at just over 220miles. My bike sometimes doesn't get started for anything upto 3 weeks and starts no problem. Not lumpy and fires evenly from the outset. Only problem is it doesn't tick over for about 2 mins. It is garaged though.
Hope this helps

I start and ride off straight away. The bike will tickover without stalling after about 500 yards. If I start it and don't ride off, it will take about 2 mins to tickover cleanly.

2000 XRV750 (NO 3), I think I'm getting the hang of them now, must fit the centrestand before the back tyre wears out. Damn, the driveshaft bearing wore out first!
