My DT drinks like a fish
Permalink  
 


Ok so last night was the first night, (now the DT is sorted with lots of new parts) that I took it for a good blast, I put 10 quid in the tank, which doesnt fill it up, but does look quite full, I am sure you know what I mean, of course the power valve is pinned open and I got a 240 jet in, lets say from 10.30pm to about 3am, I rode probably about 40/50 miles in that time, I was doing probably 50/60 mph plus most of the time and for about 5 miles 75 mph plus a good old play for about 10 mins in the local park on the wet grass LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL, I then ran out of petrol a conked out dam it, but thank the lord for the reserve tank, is this normal I take it with the PV pinned open and doing them sort of speeds???

I got a 240 and get about the same from my dt after giving it death for a few hours. Maybe having the pv pinned opened uses more fuel? BTW your views....WTF??

I have removed the snorkel off my DT, 260 jet fitted, heavily modded air intake system, aftermarket exhaust, and last week in managed to get 103 miles out of a full tank! I always spank it as well, never poodle around, most of the time I'm sat at around 55-60mph.
