I was riding with my cousin who has a stock nytro, and at the end of the day i paid the same amount that he did for fuel. And we were doing the same kinda riding.

Half a tank in 200km??? Really? Was that on trail or in the deep? Now I'm from the states so I don't really understand the whole km thing but it sounds like a long ways... I've been getting a little better milage than my carb sled, but not that much. And oil! I've been ripping through oil! You guys?

It says tank and a half.
My sled was going through lots of oil before my break in was over, but now its a lot better.
My buddy has an 08 XP 800 with the 163 (same sled, just carbed) and we climbed the same hills, and everything. At the end of the day he put in $31 worth of gas, and I put in $19.

Hope this helps 1 us gallon ( i say this because pretty much everybody else in the world would use imperial gallons, well actually the metric system) no disrespect but one of yours would equal 3.7854 liters also you should ask these guys elevation as that makes a difference. ACP

so time to post pics of my sleds fuel mileage since there are so many whiners on the cat sight that cried that my sled must be special because it doesnt burn fuel were here ya go ask rsw84 he will back it up :nono:

sorry first pic is blurry due to rain boo! but it says 84.9 on the km range and yes that is only 2 bars of fuel missing and yes under 15 litres of fuel burned playing all day long!

That is some very good mileage for sure. Depending on price and miles ridden I'm usually putting between $30 and $40 dollars of premium in my Dragon at the end of the day.

Maybe check your fuel gauge. It appears to be broken. While your fuel mileage is indeed, decent, that machine, unless I am mistaken, has a 40 liter tank. Soooo your gauge should be showing about half if you put 18L. into it.

Just saying:)
