ran it dry saturday filled up and today had to fill up again................shocked 246.7km and prob could have squeezed another 5-8 km out.........................suprised to say the least as it had been juice heavy for ages

must've been the SnW ball bearing carby balance, clean and adjustment.................. 8) :D

and it still starts easier than it did... :)

I picked up a 92' ZX-2R on Sunday, filled it up and didn't hit reserve until i had approx 230-240km on the clock, so i'm pretty plpease will the fuel efficency, but i'm also runnning a 40 tooth sprocket on the rear so my higher speed runs at lower revs, but i lose a bit of acceleration.

wow 230-240 thats heaps good...my bike starts to jerk around 150-170k's and i hit the reserve, then ill get around 200 riding very conservatively as well. Think i need a service soon. BTW Welcome to the club Skin :kuda:
