Unless you consider the fact that I own a Valkyrie. What I'm going on about today is my 21 year old Oldsmobile with 208+++ miles on the 3.8 liter V-6 under the hood. Went to Jefferson City Mo. yesterday for a P G R state ride captain meeting. Call it 145 miles from my driveway to the American legion post where this meeting was held. Filled the car up at the wally wurld in Houston Mo. up and back. The first fill up which included a lot of in town running showed 24.1 which ain't to shabby. Anybody that's run from Rolla Mo. up to Jeff City on U S 63 knows it's hilly and curvy and curvy and hilly with an assortment of little towns and various speed limits thrown in for excitement and revenue.
From fillup north bound to fillup south bound indicated zackly 235 miles which took 8.403 Gals which resulted in 27.96 M P G. Lets just say I DRIVE my cage and leave it at that!
Figure instead of spending the money on something newer and looks better and MIGHT get somewhat better fuel mileage i'll just drive my Olds til it dies. Oh and between oil changes at around 3500-4000 miles it uses less than 1/2 a quart. Besides-when I need to track down parts or supplies for the Phatt Ghurl and weather is crappy of Phatso is on the lift=cage time!
RIDE SAFE.
