mpg - l/100km

[lurch12_2000]

The 1100GK has a normal range of 36 to 42 mpg. (US) Highway riding at 60mph gives 40/41, but if the speed stays at 100mph the mileage drops about 25%.

On my 1100G with windshield, soft bags and rack (maybe 75 pounds lighter overall without the touring stuff of the GK) I average 42-46mpg including commuter traffic and 90+ mph stints.
You guys must live above the 6k rpm range to average such lower mileage. I don't know why you need to rev out these bikes, because my 1100G (and guessing the GK too) can pull a full load at 3k rpm and take off and pass just about anything, including 3 or 4 cars at a time, at 4-5k rpm.

would someone have a handy formula or a link where i can convert miles per galon (usa) to liters per hundred kilometers

my 850 uses aprox 7 l/100km (if i push it hard)

just want to work out what that is in mpg so i can compare it to what others on the forum get

Google will do calculations and unit conversions for you.

so, that works out to just under 34mpg
a little low

Have you done a conversion to US gallons or Imperial
The Imperial are bigger and will give a higehr number for MPG

if you are used to thinking in termsn of Mileage in MPG in Imperial USD will confuse you
