I maintain that knowing your fuel consumption is important, not for economical reasons though. |

My XBS so far done worst 28mpg best 52.5mpg and average 36mpg. A far cry but my car does around 9.4 mpg in town and on my recant trip to the Vaterland I managed on a strip of about 400 miles an average speed of 125mph and 21mpg so speed is not important its the stop and go or brake and accelerate. |

I'll bet my trumpet beat all the Buells on the Jog challenge for fuel consumption. I only filled up twice for the entire journey

I'm not a pipe-and-slippers type, but I certainly noticed that my Uly drunk a lot less petrol than my GS did. And looked better... And had fewer problems... And sounded better... And was just way frick'n cooler... |
