I get 10kays per Litre too :(

Generally around locally I get 470kays to a tank ... full up at 50litres. So its pretty close to 10litres per 100kays.. :)

On the open road it doesn't improve that much, I get around an extra 100kays to a tank.. Well not as much as my VS 5ltr Manual commodore. The commodore used to get 350-400kays around local then on the open road it used to clock around 650kays to a tank.

They say a day at the track equates to 10,000kms. Anyone else heard this?

Geez, how many fncken laps are you doing? and how fast are you going to do it one day?

Thats:

1,000 10k laps

2,000 5k laps

5,000 2k laps

etc

and:

416.6km/h for 24hours

833.3km/h for 12hours

etc

wow, you guys must be running some serious horses!

bloody hell, most of you guys seem optimistic, only Roy and Kabab have realistic reasing (>150k). I mean, a lot of you have cars with only 5,000klm per year age, supposedly.

edit, I should add, my 97 r33 has 85,000klm.

shaun - did u say yurs had 32k on it?  thats hella nice and low, and you doubled that in a year?  lol talk about twice daily driver.

yeah, i live 50km's from where i work so i do 500km's during the week just driving to work plus probably 200extra km's each weekend. its had its fair share of highway kilometers and thrash km's.

when i got it, being on a 2L i expected 10km/L, i average about 8km/L for every tank, worse when i have a weekend with motorsport in it :(

regarding legit km's.. there are cars out there that are legit and you can tell by the overall condition of the car.. and of course you also get the woundback ones with screwed interiors and the like. Not every car racks up high km's, especially in japan.

Yeah is the same deal here. Ride the 250 for 2 years and then you can upgrade to a bigger bike. It is a good idea tho it saves ppl killing them selve on a big bike. To put it in to perspective as a car. The R1 has 150hp at the rear wheel and weight 179 kilos. for a car to have the same power to weight ratio it would have to have over 700hp at the wheers and would only be able to weight 1000kilos.

Yeah the CBR250RR would have to be the pick of the 250's out there at the moment. They dont compare to an R1 at all. On a nice little tight road they are great, handle like a dream. I would spend you 2 years on the 250 and the upgrade to a 600 something like the R6 for at least a year and then if you can really ride the wheels off the R6 then go for something like the R1. Just remember you have your whole life to get the bike you want. Learnt to ride the smaller ones 1st and then you will enjoy a bigger bike more because you wont be scared of it.

Goodluck with finding a bike.

feel free to ask any more questions.

Maybe email me tho as we got a bit off topic hehehehe

Cheers:burnout:

mine is about to tick over to 105 000 all running smooth, and kays seem to be legit, becuase i asked the mechanic about what sort of condition the belt was in when i got it changed and he said 'yeh it looks like 100 000 kays had be done on it, no need to worry about the kays being wound back,'

i am getting around 8 ks to a litre too...

man, im only getting like around 7kms per L, but thats taking into account that i normally always leave a quarter or so in the tank each refill.

yeh - i love the r6 -- looks like thats' the path i'm gonna take.

r6/r1 one day, but for now i'll go get my bike license this holidays.

woOt~! :P

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
