250km to a tank Mike? Thats impressive. From what I have seen, and from riding Dereks up to Kelowna for him. 600RR's run out around the 175km mark, the tanks are tiny.

For me, 2002 Mustang GT, some basic bolt ons, exhaust/intake stuff, with an 87 octane tune which im sure does nothing, its about 45-52 lites to fill, and usually 40-50 bucks to fill it, and I get anywhere from 300-400kms to a tank. Depends on how much I use the go peddle.

I actually find it funny that my V8 is getting the same milage then most of these 4 and 6 cyl imports.

Even by you calculations, you do realize that most of the cars posted on here get better mileage than you , on your bike, right? Hell, my DD gets double that....

[QUOTE=c4@urdoor;6857574]Fair enough, have you noticed anything? I can honestly bet your mileage will be equal to if not worst than the 87 w/10% Ethanol.


I have put in 2 tanks of 94 so far after the change to ethanol. The fuel econ is exactly the same as before (regular with NO ethanol). For my next two tanks I will be putting in regular to compare. I cannot say what the difference is for now since I've yet to put in regular with the ethanol mix.

Your RSX-S and my 335i, both are recommended 91 octane. I have more reasons to put 94 octane in my car than the fit but I don't because IMO it's a waste of money (although its harder and harder to find a non-ethanol 91 pump ). Stick to what the manufacturer says is what I'm trying to get at. Unless your car is tuned hardcore but I think most people here are just I/H/E. so

all chevron's went 10% eth... which i hate so much...

but my point i'm trying to make is you should have a good idea of what car you're talking about and it's specifics before making snap decisions... no hard feels or anything
