Thnx

duane from dax posted something about the howell "70" and why they call it that instead of an "80"...anyone know where it is?

ok, providing my anolog odometer is accurate...

i have .33 gal tonite, after 200 miles this is my first tank at 40:1

od reading: 204.4

i'll let it run dry and come back to this topic with a number.

Good topic. I've been curious about that myself, but I don't usually ride far enough to really measure the mileage. I'll have to take it on a longer drive some day just to check mileage.

I calculated it out one time and it came out to be like 90mpg, but that was not super acurate, as I assumed 2 tanks of gas = one gallon, which i dont think it does.

hey, thanx for the feedback, guys... i was thinking that if i did want to check my gas milage, i'd have to get a better speedometer that was more accurite.

A full tank is good for about 75 miles on my bike and that is with almost 100% time at FULL THROTTLE.
