High fuel consumption on '82 XJ650

Hi people

I am getting ready to leave on a small euro trip on my "newly" purchased XJ 650.

But it only runs some 15 km pr liter and I havent even tried with full luggage yet, so I wondered if anyone had enjoyed the same situation as me?

I had an other XJ 650 before, but that ran 18km.p.l. no matter how hard I twisted the throttle.


This is a high milage bike so maybe that is just the issue...


Thanks!
