Nickw why so low on the vfr??

Hornet returns between 35 & 45 mpg depending upon how I ride it.
i use approx £11-12 to fill tank and get 150miles....is that good or bad?
I'm just glad my bike does about 38mpg. My 2.8TD Pajero I only get about 20mpg which is still more economical than the 3.2Ltr Merc coupe I just sold. Only did about 14 :o
Do I just buy wagons and bikes that seam to run on fumes or something?? The wifes Passat avg's about 40Mpg when I used to use it running up and down to Wallingford it ran at 55Mpg, when I had the Golf GTi I was getting about 30Mpg for a town journey of 4 Miles, but on a good run I got 38Mpg....
I am not sure it is low to be honest. I recently went to Bournemouth with the girlfriend on the backand luggage. We did 200 miles on that day and put in just over 17 litres to fill it back up again. So thats at the 50 mpg mark, Not bad I dont think. I regulary see 200 miles before I fill it up.Quote:

Pretty similar figures, I may have a bigger tank range, not sure ;)

Our YBR125's do about 140mpg.
Our Van Van's do about 100mpg.
Our GS500K7's do about 65mpg.
My FZ1 does about 45mpg.
My R1 when I was racing, was doing less than 20mpg! Normally about 17mpg... :o
I also have no idea, just fill up when needed. But I dont even notice as when you fill up your bike for £15 now and then, it never seems to hurt as much as a car £40 ago. I have not had a car for over 3 years now, which always seemed needing petrol. I am quite happy to put it in. :)
My Pajero has a 100 litre diesel tank :o
I try and fill it when it gets down to a quarter full. That way i'm only usually depressed for about an hour. :'(
