Hi,
I checked a few previous posts on this, but none were as extreme as I am.
I bought the bike this year and put a few hundred KM on it. My fuel consumption is at around 7l/100km or about 33mpg. I do drive somewhat aggressively some times, but not so much that I would expect to take me down from the 45mpg I see other people posting. I'd say I drive in the 4-7k rpm range (is this right? I'm still fairly new). Been using 91 octane, but have just switched to 89. I get about 200km before the last dot starts flashing and fueled today at 240km.
I haven't checked plugs or air filter. Anything besides those that might be the reason? Also, is it worthwhile to put in a K&N filter even if the stock one isn't too dirty?
Cheers
