Supporting Member whistler Posted October 5, 2018 Supporting Member Share Posted October 5, 2018 Don't know how this measures up to others, but after about 1900 of mostly commuting miles, I'm getting 50.5 mpg. I fill up around 190 to 200 miles on the trip odo and am having a blast on this little beast! Can't complain about 240+ miles per tank . . . 2019 Yamaha Tracer 900 GT (Annabelle) 2013 Suzuki V-Strom DL650 (Juliette) 2013 Yamaha FJR 1300 (Rachel) 2008 Suzuki Bandit 1250S (Fiona) 2006 Honda VFR800 (Jenny) 2005 Suzuki V-Strom DL650 (Hannah) 2003 Honda Shadow Sabre VT1100 (Veronica) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporting Member roadrash83 Posted October 5, 2018 Supporting Member Share Posted October 5, 2018 I don't think I have ever owned a multi-cylinder bike that has returned the miles per gallon that the Tracer is returning. Even with some spirited riding in the mix, this bike is a winner in the MPG war. He who dies with the most toys wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member coachluciano Posted October 5, 2018 Premium Member Share Posted October 5, 2018 Don't know how this measures up to others, but after about 1900 of mostly commuting miles, I'm getting 50.5 mpg. I fill up around 190 to 200 miles on the trip odo and am having a blast on this little beast! Can't complain about 240+ miles per tank . . . Mine was the same way for the first 2000 miles. After that it dropped considerably to around 40. Bounced back to around 45 around 2400. However, after an Ivan's flash (2400 miles) I will probably never see much beyond 40. It way too much fun to drive now with just about all the jerky-throttle issues removed, the throttle gets rolled much more than it used to. 2015 FJ-09 - Andreani Cartridges, Ohlins 535 Rear Shock, LightTech Chain Adjusters, Yoshi Fender Eliminator, Blaster-X Integrated Tail Light/Blinkers, Full Yoshi Exhaust, Ivan's Flash, Bagster Seat, Rizoma: (Bar, Grips, Bar Ends, Mirrors, Oil Cap, Rear Pegs) Bremob Corsa Corta Master Cylinder, Bremob RCS19 Hadraulic Clutch, GPR Steering Damper, Speigler Hydraulic Lines, EBC Brake Pads, Puig Screen, HealTech Quick Shifter, MPG Rearset, XSR900 Slipper Clutch, Driven Racing Halo Gas Cap, SW-Motch Front / Rear Axel Sliders, R1 Rotors / 320mm Kit Conversion.

vtwin996 Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I've noticed in West Texas where the speed limit is 80 on the interstates, mpg drops considerably. I almost got myself in trouble a couple of times when I 'assumed' 200 miles on a tank and there's considerable distances between gas stations.

krucymucy Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I have an application called fuelio installed on my phone and it says I used 286.17 liters of fuel in 6.118 kilometres. This is 52.62 mpg. It's okay.

Premium Member DavidS Posted October 7, 2018 Premium Member Share Posted October 7, 2018 I have the 2015 FJ-09, and I consistently get around 45 mpg. At 200 miles, it really starts screaming at me, and my OCD makes me stop for gas. I've never run out, and I've never gotten close to filling the tank with 4.8 gallons (per Yamaha's spec) Sometimes, I wish I had a bit more capacity, as most of my riding buddies can go much further than me, but It hasn't been a real problem.

Premium Member runnerhiker Posted October 7, 2018 Premium Member Share Posted October 7, 2018 I am getting about 52 mpg, the display computer shows avg of 57 mpg but pencil and paper calculations show that to be about 10% high. I ride mostly at 50-60 mph in Colorado canyon roads at 5000 to 9000 elevations. My low fuel warning light comes on around 200 miles. 2019 Tracer 900 GT Niwot CO USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member mikerbiker Posted December 23, 2018 Premium Member Share Posted December 23, 2018 I have 2,700 miles on my GT and get about 42MPG so low fuel light comes on around 165 miles. Theres no way I'm going to see 50+ MPG unless that's my goal and I baby the RPMs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stgolfer Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 After about 2,300 miles, my average is 50.0 according to the bike's read-out. Lots of riding at 70-75mph and lots of playtime in curvy roads, accelerating through curves. Been over 100mph a few times, too. 2003 ST1300A, 2017 PCX-150, 2019 Tracer 900 GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member DavidS Posted December 23, 2018 Premium Member Share Posted December 23, 2018 Agree with stgolfer, my 2015 FJ-09 got pretty poor gas mileage until I had around 3500-4000 miles, and then it stabilized around 45-48 mpg. Not sure why this is, but it seems pretty common on these bikes. Give it a bit more mileage, and it should improve.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gv550 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 After 4500 miles my GT says 62 mpg average, but I've never yet got to 50 mpg actual. My fuel light comes on at 190 miles, says I burned 3.5 gals but it takes 4.4 to fill. 2019 Tracer GT, Ontario, Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
