4.09 for regular unleaded

$3.69 today!

Looks like I'm doing ok here in Memphis, even though this is a jump of $0.10 from earlier this week...

And I had to fill up the Tahoe today. All 20+ glorious gallons worth.

I just paid $4.11 for a gallon of regular-ass Chevron. Thank god for that stimulus check

Just to reintroduce myself. Moved over from TOB. Not a frequent poster, but have been following the board for some time.

Anyways, What MPG is a stock 620 getting?

I don't know about stock, but on my tank tank I got 48 MPG commuting. I have a 14T front sprocket and a full Quat-D exhaust, so I can only imagine a stock 620 would be closer to 60MPG.

my highly non-stock M750 (now 795) gets 60 mpg most of the time. I think the FCRs help a lot.

Also, for new bike owners, gas mileage improves after the first service!

I get 38-44mpg on my M900.

≈$3.80 a gallon for 87 octane, here.

filling up my pickup makes me want to die.

My pickup is over $250 to fill. It's diesel at 4.95/gal. (57 gallon tank) Yay for the Geo Metro (I never thought I'd say that).

I'm not willing to ride my moto year round in Anchorage so I have been thinking about a hybrid, maybe an Escape.

3.67 for regular in my fit
3.96 for premium for my Rs

No that's about what I get too. My point is here in Wisconsin about 2/3 of what's on the road is trucks and most of those average 12-16mpg around town. Several of my buddies own Jeeps, Broncos and other 4wd trucks that only get about 10 mpg around town.

I just went 120 miles on 2.5 gallons of gas, thats all up in the canyons riding and stop and go traffic. Thats about 50mpg i think. How come some people only get 35mpg?

Hard acceleration, late braking.

Glad (and a bit surprised) to see that we don't have the most expensive gas in the country down here in Honolulu. We are still under $4/gal for regular, but probably not for long... Thank god for riding moderately efficient motorcycles. Now if only it would quit raining...

I get a fuel discount from my grocery store. Still cost 3.559 a gallon for regular in the F150. Swiped the card, it stopped at $75. Had to reswipe and put in another $9. $84 to fill the tank... (14.4 mpg).

The S2R1k is getting 40+ with HARD city riding. If I took it even a bit easier, I bet I could get closer to 50..
