Scrambler 400x fuel economy - real world miles per gallon

i did 2 runs to determine the actual efficiency of my Triumph Scrambler 400
i determined a course of 27.8 miles / 44.74 kilometers and did a fast run followed by an eco run
measured the exact fuel consumption on both and compared to onboard computer readings

2000 miles on my 400x, hard to get below 70mpg, been averaging upper 70's mpg blasting around having fun on back roads and mixed highway up to 80MPH....sometimes faster but 70-80mph is pretty comfortable.

My Speed 400 ridden at six to ten thousand feet in Colorado USA gets 80 mpg every time I fill it. Last fill up was 88 mpg. Thin air has less resistance .

I havent found my speed 400 mpg indicated to be very accurate 81on screen and calculated 73.6 speedo is out a good 10% too will have to do a few more tank empties to be sure though.

I take it thats woth the 15t sprocket speed 1st not usefu too low and 6th always has more than enough go so some sprocket changing front or rear is worth a spin i feel have you hesrd of any quality parts available for speed?

I've been getting around 70-72 MPG (US gallons) with mine, but I'm still in the break-in period.

According to my trip comp on a run on friday it was showing 84mpg, although I am still running it in with a 6k rpm limit, I expect that to fall massively once run in and full revs can be given

congrats on the new bike!
surprised at how accurate that computer is tbh

[@Aitch412]

@@laniake-an to be honest at 6k I was hitting 70mph on the flat and downhill sections (A12) so running isn't the chore I thought it was going to be

[@laniake-an]

you can probably sneak a bit over 6000 as you get closer to 600 anyway XD
i changed my front sprocket from 14 to 15 tooth too so it cruises at 70 or so just nicely

@@laniake-an thats my next mod, I've got a tail bag and a screen... I'll get the sprocket fitted at the first service

[@laniake-an]

@@Aitch412 i've been thinking about a screen...which one did you get?
