    I'm going home in just over a weeks time, I need a pasty. Normally make sure I fill up around Monkton when I stop for a burger and a cuppa at that great little layby burger van.

    My Dodge Charger takes 19 gallons, but needs filling after going to Swindon and back. Normally does about 8 to the gallon... The bike sort of balances things out... sort of... :'(

    8 miles to the gallon. You will need a few more of the 5p of per litre vouchers from Tesco or Sainsbury's then.

    I just totted up all the petrol receipts for my CBR125R. In the 25 weeks I owned it, I filled it up 31 times with a total of 195 litres (43 gallons) and travelled 4582 miles, so that works out at an average of 183 miles/week, 153 miles/tank, 107 miles/gallon.

    I managed 60 mpg from my XJ6 while I was doing its first 600 miles very slowly at 5,000 rpm max. Can now go to 7,000 rpm for next 400 miles so mpg will start falling now!!....

    Adrian :-?

    Actually, I've worked it out, and it's doing 10.2mpg. I think not bad for a 7.3litre V8. And that was carrying a tent, 3 sleeping bags, 3 airbeds, a gas cooker, gas bottle, 3 deck chairs, a spare radiator, 3 socket sets of different sizes, timing light, 5 litres of water, 2 litres of trans fluid, 2 litres of oil, various electrical connectors and tools, 3 clothes bags, 3 pillows, 2 cool bags and a cool box, a copy of 'NUTS' magazine, and me and 2 mates. Who's the fat git??? :P
