Luc, Yes about the need for several 'trials' to get accuracy, but why the the need to go through several full tanks? I have a 2003 'vintage' and the speedometer/odometer has a resettable 'trip meter' {knob on the right side of the instrument cluster}. 50 miles {of a mix of your typical riding pattern} should be enough for each 'trial'. With a 'typical' mileage of 50 to 60 mpg you should be able to get about 5 sets of data per tank. While the more data points you have the greater the accuracy, 10 sets should give a fairly accurate figure for this 'study'.

Seems like I gained about 10 mpg, but that's just the 1st tank I' ll have to burn a few more to get an accurate average . . . snip _______________________________________ No viruses found in this outgoing message Scanned by iolo AntiVirus 1.5.7.1 http://www.iolo.com
