just a observation really why the gen 4 is **** on fuel compared to the gen 3...both take around ?15 to fill from empty where as the gen 3 use to say range 155 miles..... the best it says on the gen 4 is 97 miles...........as it use 2 bars within 14 miles.........and other people say its night &day compared to the gen 3.....Where's I disagree......to me its not worth the extra money.......oh well we all make mistakes.....
Petrol consumption Gen4

Help Support S1000RR FORUM:
I was getting over 100 miles between tanks, similar to the hp4. I wouldn?t go off ?range? displayed, but actual miles/?.
Just wait until we start getting E10 at the pump (which I understand that the govt has committed to), I believe it reduces economy about 10%. Coming to petrol stations from Sep I think...
Super/high performance E5 will still be sold alongside e10 standard fuel.
What does the avg MPG say you're getting on the Gen4 and how does that compare to the Gen3? This is a better comparison than range.

Haven't done a lot of miles yet, but so far MPG is comparable to my Gen3 for the short time I had that
Are you suggesting that invalidates anything?

i didnt look for economy on fuel when purchasing my beemers, ive had 5 now and would say there hasnt been a lot of difference between any of them on consumption. my mates rsv4 runs out way before me as well. the fact that it holds 1ltr less than the gen 3 dose notice slightly on when i refuel.
????..?? You on different planet
I've had 2 gen 3's and a gen 1 before the gen 4 and the fuel consumption is about the same but even if I was worried about fuel mpg I'd have probably bought a 125 ????*??

On my Gen 4 I didn?t notice any significant difference in fuel consumption to that on my Gen 3

That?s because you never changed out of 1st [emoji2957]
I don?t think I?ve ever worried about fuel economy.... if I get the dreaded ?take up the entire screen? message so I can?t see my crappy lean angles then I worry about finding the next petrol station....
sports and economy do not exist in the same sentence.... I ride progressively and within my means and usually grinning away in my lid
I also think these trip computers are like the car ones... u ever play the game where u brim ur tank and see what range it gives u and see how many miles u can drive for ?free? before the trip computer moves??
fuel is fuel... remember as a kid being told we shall run out by 2010.... and here we are still pumping it. Not overall bothered by mpg personally
