What kind of mpg are you looking at with a 125, with the rpm probably being kept below 6k?

I've got ten litres - just over 2.5 USG, 2 UKG - in the tank - how far might that get me?

I'm guessing somewhere around 70mpg maybe more. The most fun way to figure it out is fill the tank, strap a gas can to your back, clock the miles, and ride til it's empty.

keep a check on the oil tank too.

it can vary a little bit, so why not clock up 30-40 miles, and see how much you have to fill the tank with to get it full again?

As a 2 stroker, wouldn't it get worse MPG than a 4? But still, it's a 125, so it'll get great milage.

You will probably find you fill the gastank 3-4 times before you need to fill the injection oil tank. But keep an eye on it. All mine had idjit lights for injection oil levels. Once the light came on, I had at least one gastankfull's worth oil left.
