Decreased Fuel Range :-(

(1/3) > >>

Honda Al:
Hi all,

Since fitting my repro HM323 exhausts, the fuel range has decreased. I used to get ~95 miles before switching to reserve and now only get ~75miles.

Any ideas? Alan

what did you have fitted before?  Maybe it's breathing properly now?

Check your jet sizes, often aftermarket pipes need larger jets to run properly, if you do have bigger than standard jets, that's where your fuel is going!

It was a 4-2 system.

Jetting may well have been altered before you bought it, especially if it's a u.s. import, the yanks love fiddling with things for no good reason! Also, it could be down to your riding style, revving high through low gears in town etc.
