Have you ever stopped to work out how much fuel your bike uses? Ie: how many KM roughly you get out of 1 litre of fuel?
This isnt about being cheapskate (however i do wear the title "frugal" happily).
Its about curiousity in comparing fuel consumption. Bare with me..
Over the last 4 years or so i have done many trips around the north (Mae Hong Son loop/doi intanon/Phu Chi Fa/ Mae Salong etc....but on a Fino.
Now i have a dtracker 250.
The Fino is a bit of a guzzler (compared to small manuals such as Honda Sonic).
I use 91 on the Fino, and V-power nitro+ on the Dtracker
The Dtracker has a 7.7 litre tank, and based on calculations (of course this can vary, so just approximation) i probably get around roughly 15km per litre of fuel (likely less if i were not to use v-power).
Ive never worked out how much fuel i use on the Fino because it always seemed so nominal an amount. However, now im thinking that i possibly have BETTER fuel consumption with the dtracker than the FINO..and that got me curious. I plan to try calculate how many km the Fino gets out of one litre of fuel...at some point, as a comparison.
..anyway, i dont know if this interests anyone..but putting it out there anyway....!
