Can I ask all these fuel sippers if these figures are unladen, or maybe how laden? My (big and fat) bike does 200 miles on a tank without trying, but falls well short as soon as I put panniers on. Will the effect be more marked on a small cc bike? Or since you're already going slower the extra drag isn't as noticed?
Its good to see the older BMW single being promoted as thrifty, and no-one popping up with KTM alternatives  I have always been told KTMs are thirsty, and their absence in this thread must prove that
