predator bad on gas?
I got a chance to do some long rides this weekend alongside a sportsman who kept track of the milage. Running a gear tall and taking it easy, average was 30 mpg, and running soft sand and steep hills in higher RPMs brought a 25 mpg average...so I think it does really well!

I agree with Pudljumpr. I think it's pretty good on fuel consumption. Last time I calculated it, it was about 29 MPG - and that was running it pretty hard in 3rd & 4th mostly over a 4k ft elevation change. Though the Predator fuel capacity is about 1/2 gallon more than my Z400, I consumed only a minor amount more on the same trail.

I dont know what i did. But when i first got mine it seemed like it was getting about 6 Miles to a gallon (well not really but it was low) then after it was broken in alittle more The gas mileage seemed to increase by alarge amount. Maybe im just trippin but i think it has something to do with how well broken in it is. But that doesnt make any since so oh well.. I just took mine about 30miles in sand and my dad tached it with his sp500 and I had about alittle more then half i tank i think. But i probally went alot further then him because i had the rear wheels burning out half the time [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Mine gets great mileage. I've never caluclated that but at the end of some 3-4 hour rides I'll check and find half a tank or more in there. This is way better than my utilities ever got!
I do think they get better as they wear in, though, then get worse again as the rings wear out.
