Hi Dave, On a mini-bike? So much for "green". I think if Al Gore were to go over there the Euro-fans would give it to him for free. I just filled up. $8.63 for 3.348 gallons @ $2.579. I had riddin 195.3 miles on that tank, 58.33 mpg, worst in weeks. However, it was all at full speed and I might have left the choke closed for about 50 miles. Usually it gets 64 - 70 miles per gallon, at slower speeds and without forgetting the choke. > Paul Hill wrote: >> On Wed, Sep 8, 2010 at 9:13 AM, Pete Theisen <[email protected]> > wrote: >>> I was kind-of hoping to get one small enough to run my little bike.
