What is your average mpg.

Triumphs generally get pretty good mpg, so whats yours? Tell us the year of your bike, mods and what type of riding you did while getting it :)

I get 45-50 mpg with mine.

I put the spurs to 'er sometimes, but I'm generally a pretty careful rider, keeping within the speed limits unless I'm riding outside the city.  

My engine is stock except a K&N air filter, Triumph Offroad pipe, and Offroad tune.

'03 with staintune exhaust, power commander & KN filter:

\'03 Tiger 955i

geoff

2006 model, completely standard, mostly short runs to the shops and other local errands. Generally not ridden very quick because I want to keep my license.  But it does get the occasional squirt. Lifting the front wheel in first is lots of fun :D

49mpg(imp.) or 5.8 l/100km.

Typical speed limits 50 to 70kph. This will normally get me past 300km before the low fuel light comes on (after using about 18 litres of fuel).

My Tiger is '02. I have a K&N air filter, irridium plugs and a 19T front sprocket AND I'm dealing in UK gallons here. (figures in brackets are USgallons.....I think)
General riding the twisties and enjoying myself, I get 55mpg (45). Constant 85~90mph on motorway I get 45mpg (37). Going REALLY easy I have had 65mpg (53).

I generally work on 10p per mile, but as fuel prices rise I may have to back off a little, or just increase the budget !  :roll:

BTW, the above converts to 45-50 mpg (UK)
