Buell tubers mileage

nativeXb12Rbuell · Feb 4, 2011

Ok I would like to know what kind of mileage all the old tuber Buells get on gas mileage. And maybe this might be helpful to some others here also. I have wondered this a few times, and we have a thread for the XB's mileage and now one for the 1125 (R & CR). why not for the tubers, If there is one already I couldn't find it, if so post me a link to it.
anyways please list the year, model, engine size & how many miles /Kilometers on the odometer on your BUELL, & all mods of your tuber Buell and the mileage you get along with the average your get on the fuel reserve or fuel light on. and any other info on your buell want to list .

I average about 65 mpg running mostly 80 mph with a about 8 stops and goes on the way to work. Thats pushing for the fuel light to come on at about 190-200. i dont know how she does it but its way better gas fuel mileage than my jeep!

I've got a buddy with an S3T that was forced to run at 65mph due to weather/roads/police condtions on the slab last summer - 65mpg he swears.

Bad fuel issued here in Washington State. Using fuel stabalizer to keep from sputtering. Trip from Indio, CA to Olympia, WA over 3 days (1250 miles) averaged 51mpg. Now that the fuel issue has been fixed, I am running a tank now and should get a better outcome.

1999 X1 Carbon Fiber #195 of 250. Just did turn over 30,000 miles. Race ecm, Custom headers by Mitch Bergeron in Palm Desert, CA (wraped), Vance and Hines muffler, K&N oval filter w/CF cover, Accel custom spark wires.

1999 M2, K&N forcewinder intake, V&H muffler, 22,XXX. I average about 40 mpg because I routinely ride to/from work which is only a few miles, and when I do get out in the open I'm fairly abusive to that right grip

I get about 45 with bags on my s3t and about 50 without. This is with the deep bags, I wish I had narrows too. Aside from bmw thumpers its hard to beat the mileage and keep loaded intersate power. Very happy bueller here.
