Re: [ST] Frightening Fuel Consumption

["Mark Dieck" <mdieck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jonathan;

Something is definitely wrong. I routinely get 250 miles from a tank of gas. This
is with a mix of commuting and weekend riding.

This last weekend I was returning from a trip and decided to see how far I could
stretch a tank.  Running on the freeway, keeping the speed between 70 and 75 mph I
went 280 miles (gps verified) on 4.7 gals.
