Fuel voodoo...

[Buggles]

Hi All,

I've had the KTM for two weeks now, and I'm absolutely loving it! I'm hearing lots of different numbers on fuel consumption, and I'm just wondering what everyone is getting...

I get about 130 until the light comes on in city traffic, with 140-150 until the light comes on outside of the city.

This is with the topbox on...

I remember Stanbloke saying he got 170 miles out of 13 litres of petrol, I'd love to know how

Mine's got the standard cans & mapping on...

The "In town" mileage sounds about right-ish.

170miles/ 13.54L was on the M6 , two up and loaded for camping at Dent. Steady 75/80 and easy on the right hand.

Riding it steady around my area I'm still getting 165/15L....soooo glad i put it back to standard..... but twist the throttle and go out to play and the big Katoom becoms as thirsty as a thirsty thing thats really thirsty..

Have fun JB..

I seem to average 160 to the light. That's mostly 50% motorway sitting between 70 and 80 and 50% B-roads. Does anybody know what the range is once the light comes on aproximately? IT'd be good to have an idea and not have to deal with that "I wonder if I can get to" feeling.

My 950 does 160 until the flashing amber light starts, I did manage 175 on a steady run through France

.....That was "Bad stan" ( I killed him and replaced him with "Save you license Stan" ,. ah those where the days.....I'm completely reformed now and a far more sensible person..

I usually get about 270kms(+/-170miles) to the light, guess that's about right then.
