after bit of testing worked out i get 9.33 miles to the ltr and 111.96 from full 12ltr tank this is on a rb22 and was wondering what others get to compare if this is good bad or average p.s this was town riding so would expect more on long motorway rides

What setup are you running rbgaz? I get nearer to 7 with mikuni and nk. Its great for long distance runs but a bit of a shock when I fill up the 17l tank!!

Tv 175 s3 standard besides Gori Sport:

6.23 l / 100 km => 16 km / litre equals almost 115 km between pitstops...

But I only run full open throttle, same consumption in London as on A roads...

Cheers rbgaz. I suspect I may have a problem with the choke not sealing properly on the tmx. Its a real pig to set up the midrange.
