sleeper06 Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 It all depends on the motor, mine runs through a tank in 6-8 good passes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2001Stroker Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 You're lucky. I go through a tank in about 1-1/2 hours of riding trail, if I'm being easy. Getting into the throttle, it's on reserve in about 45 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spurdy Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 A lot depends on the port job. High flow porting is flowing more fuel. Stock doesn't flow worth a shit and different ports jobs flow differently. Just like when you change your intake track. More air flow means you need more fuel, same reason you increase your jet sizes. SP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKheathen Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 You're lucky. I go through a tank in about 1-1/2 hours of riding trail, if I'm being easy. Getting into the throttle, it's on reserve in about 45 minutes. x2. i run through it fastest on hill shots, only fmf pipes, no snorkel, and jetted for around 0 degrees @ sea level. i've got <2 hours max, and that's babying it for 10 min on reserve. i think the oversized tanks are gaughty, so i.m looking into a fuel cell maybey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001Stroker Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 2-stroke's are thirsty motors man. 3-4 hours is not bad at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
