CB750 MPG

(1/3) > >>

Mike on a bike:
What would be an average MPG for a k6 CB750. My chop only has a 2 gallon tank and was wondering how far I would get on a tank full. I think I might have to change my speedo to one with a zeroable tripmeter.  :o

hairygit:
Most road tests of the time state about 30-35mpg, which by todays standards is shocking! The F2 with the super lean running pd carbs managed an average of 40mpg! It all depends on how hard or carefully you ride it, best I've ever seen on my 750F1 is 43mpg, steady 80mph on a clear (3am) M, but chances are with a chop you will have a smaller diameter rear wheel and lower gearing, therefore you'll get less mpg!

MarkCR750:
Not a problem on a chopper though mike , you won't be going touring on it will you, the only issue you'll have is getting fed up with motorists asking you questions about it at petrol stops! 😄

Green1:
Yep 30-35mpg sounds about right.

royhall:
Both my F2's only manage low 30's as I have them set a bit rich. They run better.
