MPG?

(1/2) > >>

Kaveman42:
Anyone know what the MPG are on average for the K5's? What do you guys get? I get some s**tty gas mileage. I got about 35 miles from the tank when I went riding on Monday. Yesterday I took it out and probably road half that and just about used the tank. Any chance Im running to lean?

hoopty:
I get ~ 48 to a tank

machine:
I get around 50 miles on a tank

Arigato:
Lean=better mileage,  what does your spark plug look like?

I mean Rich then. Not Lean. I need to check the plug. Ive only gone out twice with the bike so far. Ill probably check today if I get some time. I guess Im getting what you guys are getting. My tank wasnt completely empty when i did 35 miles. Im sure I couldve squeezed in about 10 more miles. I should probably buy an odometer/speedometer so I wont get stuck with an empty tank. Its kinda hard to guess how long ive been riding. Any suggestions?
