So approximately 55 mph? Can't see a 600 guzzling fuel at that velocity. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

Folk seen to get around 45mpg 16km/l but at 55 you'll do better than that.
Buy it - the money saved you can spend on fuel.. where are you anyway with you metric distances? ____________________ Now: A100, GT250A, XJ598, FZ750

I always looked on them as a poor mans Kwack ZZR. Saying that I know of no issues that stand out with either the 600 or 900.
Still father have the ZZR though. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |

That's not that bad, I've never had a car do better than that but admittedly I've never bought anything remotely modern so maybe my idea of good mpg is skewed.
Only time I'd start to think about mpg is when you're getting into 20mog territory. Petrol is 70p a litre still in my brain, it makes it easier to fill up and not care (then later wonder why I'm always skint before payday) that way. |
It is interesteing.. years ago anything over 30 was good (not that I cared then with company fuel), now I'm paying for it 45 is my aim for the car, and coincidentally is about what I get from my Yams. I ran a 2.0 litre TwinSpark Alfa a few ago and was aghast to ony get 30.. expectations do change. ____________________ Now: A100, GT250A, XJ598, FZ750

I had a 600RF when I passed my test 12 years ago. Absolutely loved that bike. I was a proper head turner until you walked round the back and saw it's big fat ass. lol.
I used to get 45mpg easy and that wasn't slow riding. I think because it's got a steel frame it's quite a bit heavier than it's competitors so it gets kicked around a little in the specs. Also, pegs are really high so not easy on the knees.
Fun bike though. Always fancied the 900 but never got round to owning one (yet ) ____________________ Went like this.. 43 years old(2013) decided to do CBT to get a 125 for new job. Bought 2011 YBR, loved it for three months then hated it because it was too god damn slow. Did DAS 4 months later then bought RF600 Loved it, sold it bought Bandit 1200(K3). EFFIN lOVED IT. Wanted something a bit more sporty so got Triumph Sprint ST 955i (53). Not sporty enough so now on my GSXR 1000 K3 and absolutely love it. 1 year down the line, nearly died way too many times on this bike. Sold it. Had a 6 month break. Missed biking so now, Aug 2019 have a 1999 ZX9r. What a beauty she is too. |
