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.

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

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.

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.

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

      Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action

      Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand.

      Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!

      Hypergear ATR45 SAT Turbo With addons (brand new - never used)

      I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
