Hi I would like to see what kind of fuel miliage people are getting with thier sleds
so if you could just state the type of sled length' of track and MY and size of engine and the type of ridding and the terrain you were in when you recieved those results oh yeah the temp and elevation also

Or if you dont want to you dont have to post anything but the MPG
its just that with more info it easier to establish the actual fuel consumption

well here goes mine I hope I get it right LOL the format that is

D7 07 136x1.5 intense track /66 gram/stock sec/and SLP pipe/air funnel
hard pack 60 to 80 kph caravan type of ridding boring straight a head stuff
sea level -15 cel
156 km@ 30 liters:face-icon-small-coo

Don't know how to convert to Km/L. but my 08 700 dragon 155" got 8.5 MPG
Hard mountain riding. Deep snow boondocking and long climbs wide open. I'm sure if I rode 30-50mph trails only it would double.

08 Dragon 700 155" track around 4-5 mpg. Boondocking in deep heavy snow and hill climbing. Put a black purple spring in the secondary and think it killed my fuel mileage. All stock except 19 tooth top gear.
