5 tanks to go 100 miles is bad no matter what riding conditions there is. Thats 5 mpg! If I had a hole in my tank I think I could beat that.

 

Does anyone not use the white tube?

I guess I'll be the guinea pig

 

ARE YOU PUTTING IN A FULL 5GAL PER TANK? ON MY BF750FI, I DROP DOWN TO 1 BAR WITHIN ABOUT 25-30 MILES, BUT IVE PUSHED IT TO 52 MILES AND STILL HAVEN'T RUN OUT OF FUEL. I'M GETTING ABOUT 12MPG WITH THE MACHINE IN 4-WD AND RUNNING 3/4 TO FULL THROTTLE IN 12-24" OF SNOW. IF YOUR GETTING LESS THEN THAT, AND IN REGULAR CONDITIONS, SOMETHINGS WRONG.

 

Welcome to the world of belt drive.

It's either gears or tears on the trail.

I am not sure what hapened but my brute hesitated fairly bad today for a second and about died. Then straightened and had what seemed like heeps of power the rest of the day and did not use much fuel at all. Hopefully my fuel thirst has come to a end but I doubt it.

Take off the blinders man..

 

I am having similar issues with my brute, just seems like my mpg is horrible. I have tried to remove the "tube" I just cant seem to get the tube out of my brute, my damn baseball mit hands dont help none either, I just cant seem to get any leverage in the tube to Pop it out, I can only get 2 fingers in the hole as it is.

stick a coathanger or similar down & hook onto the bottom edge, it will come out

 

I have a 2007 BF 650 SRA, I get better mileage using the TwinAir filter over stock filter. About difference of 20 miles on per tank
