--- Quote from: tcoop474 on July 19, 2011, 05:56:18 AM ---Also what mpg or miles on a tank of gas should i get? Cause i filled it up sat morning rode for about 3-4 hrs then sun for about 2 hrs and ran out of gas in the middle of nowhere in the woods and had to b towed home. just wondering if my jetting is off or thats about normal as it is a big motor. i rode the trails 2nd 3rd gear normally bouncing in and out of the powerband. did a few nice hill climbes as well...for my first actual ride on the k5 i got to say im not disapointed at all. Nice power climbs hills like they are nothing. Never climbed some of these hills out here that easy on a 4 poker or other 2 stroke bike or quad. K5 is a beast for sure!!!!

Your "milage" per tankfull is going vary greatly relative to engine load and speeds. I can go approx 45 miles of cruising 60 mph logging roads or as little as 15 miles of low speed technicall  trails.... There is no clear answer.

Im more low speed tech trails 2nd 3rd gear
