I've been getting less than 40 mpg on my scoot. I live in the city with a lot of stop signs and stop lights. Not exactly the best recipe for great gas mileage. I've gotten as few as 28 mpg on a tank. The best was 45. Once. I have the 3.3 tank and still less than 2000 miles on the scoot. I'm hoping once I get to 3000 I'll start averaging close to 45 mpg overall. Although I'm not holding my breath.

 

ok well today i put about 110ish miles on my bike and i filled up twice, both times i was scared but it didnt crap out i was @ 56 1st time and right now i just got home and im @ 54 before the reserve. i still havent hit the reserve too scared to mess with it lol and half of the miles were on the hwy.

 

I would say that with the 2.2 gal tank you could expect a figure like you do. In fact, 50mpg is not bad for a new Sporty. Expect to see some improvement after more miles.

 

what about your reserve? how much gas fits in the main and the reserve 2.2 total /(1.3 main)(.9 reserve) is this right?

 

Got 124miles outta my 3.3gal before hitting reserve over the weekend!!

Rode a few miles more and filled up with approx 2.4gal...

 

i rode 61 miles on my 2.2 last night and filled it with 1.3. didnt hit the reserve just decided that was prob what i was going to get out of it lol

 

36 mpg is my average, 65% miami traffic, mostly stop and go. all highway i never gotten more than 42 mpg. 2010 48.

 

It's amazing to me how shitty milage you guys are getting. I must be doing something rite.

 

I'm not sure if we are getting bad gas mileage. If u have the standard tank ur getting about the same we just have to fill up more often. If u are getting 100 miles on ur 3.5 or 2.sumthing ur get about 40-50 mpg just like we are

 

My 2003 883r has the 3.3 tank. I get 42-48 mpg depending on the riding conditions
