  • What kind of gas mileage should I expect?

    I drive it mostly around town with occasional highway trips, so how many MPGs should I expect?

      I haven't worked mine out yet - had some head issues (understatement) but I seem to be getting through my tank quite quickly so that's probably about right.
      However - I don't care 'cos it's great fun!

          not knowing the condition of your bike, I will take a stab at 35mpg. That seems fair engough.
