First Trip Abroad on the ZX10
« on: June 20, 2019, 03:37:47 PM »
Next week off to Germany for the first euro trip on the ZX10 Going to the Ring for 2 days then down to the Black Forrest 4 days then back to the Ring for 2 nights. Did 12 trips on the old GIXER and always performed well, got the ventura kit on the ZX10 same as the GIXER. Over the past few weeks since picking her up been getting around 130-140mls to a tank (using Full Power Mode) and averaging 46MPG is this the norm thought might get a bit better out of a tank, I do commute and ride quite briskly but on par with the GIXER.
What sort of miles per tank are other getting and average MPG?
Thx Sean

Sounds epic, keep us posted and updated with Pics  :icon_thumright:

Fuel consumption is for a Gen4/5? I take it.. my Gen 3 ridden briskly was good for about the same or less... so sounds about right to me  [whistle]

Well what a trip was a tad sweaty but some early morning rides were great with little traffic and bearabel heat. Did 2063mls in the week and managed a healthy 53mpg overall !!!

Couple of pics
