just came back from visiting my misses grandparents in shepparton.. first long trip ever in my vn... i usually get 200k's per tank (10min city driving) today i filled up, one tank got me there and back and ive still got a 1/4 tank left. (63L tank).

did 432k's i could prabably squeeze a few more.. im happy with that.. i always thought my vn was stuffed.

The majority of the trip was at 110kph and the engine was revving at 2grand..
:thumbsup:

The funny thing, when my gauge is in the red.. i can only put 32L in before it clicks.. which means my gauge is reading wrong since ive actually still got over 30L in there which means i could probably get in the 500-600's.

I get about 12L/100Km in city driving and about 8.5-9L/100Km on the open road crusing at 110Kmph. Eg driving from Adelaide to Melbourne. No LPG (not really a fan) and running on 91Ron Unleaded.
Oh and 40psi on the 17" tyres, K&N Air filter, CAI, 2.5" exhaust cat back.
Cheers Patto
