kxf450 vs kx500: Fuel Consumption....

<< < (3/3)

meangreen500:
I get about 50 to 55 on average. If im hard on the throttle maybe following a desert race course I can get less maybe 50 max. I have a friend that when on his 500 he can only get maybe 45 because he's always on the throttle hard. I think its the way you ride, how its jetted, how its geared and jetting.

newp500:
2009 KXF 450 setup for HS in Minnesota, last race I burned 1.9 gallons for 42 miles in 1hr 58 minutes (roughly 20 miles to the gallon). I race A class and am not easy on the gas. I also have a 1998 KX 500 (stock) that I race on the ice, with it jetted good it may get 15mpg if I'm lucky. Granted the 5 is WFO the whole time its running. The KXF gets awesome mpg with the EFI compared too my old bikes and my friends. Hope this helps.
