For the record, I am getting about 20 kilometres to a litre in the city. Have not yet done any long rides so no information.

For us dummies here's the online conversion calculator for MPG to KPL.


Fuel Consumption Conversions - Miles Per Gallon to Kilometres Per Litre (mpg to kpl) & More


20 kpl = 56.5 mpg

Has anyone seen a +/-1 tooth front/rear sprockets for better mpg out of a 500cc bike?

55 to 56 is pretty darn good for a 750cc motorcycle. I had a 1976 Honda CB750K model four cylinder that got right at 45. 2005 Kawasaki KLR650 averaged 54. My 2006 XL883 Sportster averaged about 48-50 normal riding, but did get about 65 on a long back highway ride.

I've been riding for a little over 2000 miles. Stock bike, I'm about 150-160 lbs. I'm in NYC, and about 2/3rds of my riding is commuting in the city itself or riding around in Brooklyn, with about 1/3rd being weekend rides to Bear Mountain and such. According to my GasTracker app (which I highly recommend):

City: 66%
Highway: 34%
Average Lifetime MPG: 33.7 MPG
Best MPG: 62.8 MPG

With so much city driving, and with me being more aggressive than many, I'd say this is pretty well within normal for a 750 CC bike. That best number was clocked on a long NY highway during the Gypsy Run, we were pulling 80-100 for most of the way.

When I baby the bike for a tankful in the city, I can maybe get 30 MPG, but NYC is just all stop and go all the time, and it's mostly short trips. When I don't baby it, and I'm out with friends ripping around Williamsburg, I probably get 26-28 MPG.

YMMV, heh.

Addendum: At the end of January, I'm moving from NYC to Denver, CO. I've also installed a VH Slip-on. I'll update in about 1000 miles, but I expect that my mileage will go up, with less congestion and more highway riding.

I get about 4L / 100km depends on how much fun I have.
VH exhust, SE intake + SE powermodule (Stage one)
Can easly use more fuel

 

[Propnut]

I have just filled in my spreadsheet after refueling the Street. Total mileage to date 1832 km and I have used in total 78.12 litres. That is almost all city work with maybe 20% highway usage. These figures work out to 23.45 km/l or 55.16 mpg. I am using the US Gallon conversion not the Imperial one.

I put all my vehicles on Fuelly.

 

[Zephyr]

I'm running about 60-65mpg (or higher). I have to add that I always check my tires and am mostly riding at higher speeds since rural living = high country road speed limits.

 

[Kinshuk Arya]

I am running around 19.5kmpl, with heavy bumper to bumper traffic of India, which is around 46mpg.

I have a v&h intake and exhaust plud the fp3 tuner, I travel 44 miles a day to and from work average speed of 80mph I weigh 260pounds I average 126 miles per 3 gallons so about 42mpg , thats with a few 90mph and 105mph peak speeds at least twice or more per fill up

 

[birdmove]

Had an older Ninja 500 that averaged 66 mpg. That was a water cooled vertical twin. The Street 500 should be getting some pretty good gas mileage.

 

[charlesskelter]

You're comparing it to a bike that is about 200 pounds lighter. Low 50's with mixed city/highway. About 60 mostly highway. That's going 75-80 on the interstate the while way.

 

[Deepaksit22]

I have been riding it on highways and peak traffic of Indian metro cities.
The calculations till now are varying on a higher note:

City ride: 13-18 kmpl.
Highway: 24-26 kmpl.

Planning another highway ride this weekend, will update the winter drive results soon next week.

I have a stage one kit screaming eagle air and tuner and vance and hines pro com exhaust un baffled (sound baffle is out of it) on highway going 60-75 mph I got 53 mpg slower speeds 50-60 I got around 56mpg. the shop I had it tuned with was even impressed with the way it ran and it sounds like a Harley now too.
