Platinum Boarder Posts: 2061 Re:08 Stars - What's Your MPG 9 Years, 8 Months ago   I don't know about the '08 models, but I finally logged a respectable 43 mpg yesterday. Much happier now.

I weigh in at 265 so I'm not getting what the 185's are. Price of fuel goes up much more maybe I'll knock the weight down   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #94749 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:08 Stars - What's Your MPG 9 Years, 8 Months ago   txulrich I think the only 2 people here who have 08s are Redbeard and 1steadyloser. You could PM them and ask. That way if this thread gets buried they will still see your question.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #94976 copperchopper (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 112 Re:08 Stars - What's Your MPG 9 Years, 8 Months ago   (I think the only 2 people here who have 08s are Redbeard and 1steadyloser) You can add me to that short list, just don't know how to put that pic. on reply yet   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #95033 Troybuilt (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 26 Re:08 Stars - What's Your MPG 9 Years, 8 Months ago   Add me to that list 08 r* siverado. went on a long ride sunday when i refuled at the end of the ride she took 2.323 and we had gond 123 miles 52.9MPG??

Of course we lost some fuel capacity with the fuel injected models so if the range is close to the same as a pre-08 model then we are getting better mpg. I don't get the exhaust pop after shutdown with this new one, though.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #95041 copperchopper (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 112 Re:08 Stars - What's Your MPG 9 Years, 8 Months ago   Thats it, I'm going on a diet, I still got bags and trunk to add, let alone all the little do-dads. I sit on the low end of the scale on this forum and another with my c50. Tuna sandwiches and water I guess   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #95214 fatman1683 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 20 Re:08 Stars - What's Your MPG 9 Years, 8 Months ago   I'm averaging about 37-39mpg but I'm a big guy (330lbs) and I do 99% of my riding in the city with some sub-10mi highway jaunts on the way to work or to friends' houses. I could probably squeeze out another mpg or two if I lost the windshield, and another 5-7 if I lost some weight   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
