thought the 600s were rated at 55mpg or something? if your reving the piss out if it all the time its obviously gonna be a lot lower

I doubt it.. My 96 gets 38-40 in town and about 34-35 on the interstate at 80MPH

If your getting 30mpg on a bike, something is wrong rofl.

As far as e85 goes.. for the few cents you save filling up your tank, i'd much rather have a bike that gets close to double the mpg.

Bike > Car when it comes to MPG. You see gas prices lately? They are only going to get worse.

When I brought it to All Power Sports it didnt have any fairings and the guy that had it before me put on a 1995 gas tank so what they did was put on the stock 1995 fairings from a bike that had been down. That is why the fairings on this bike are skuffed. Its just the fairings that are damaged. If you have any more questions feel free to ask ill tell you the complete truth to the best of my knowledge." hhm iv email this kid for about a month now and it sounds pretty true

Is it the purple/black/yellow scheme?
