Gas Mileage

[dolittlejones]

I know there has been a lot of talk on here about mileage I have a 13 RTS Sm5 I just got home from a 2280 mile trip riding 1 up on 2 lane and 4 lane hi ways I used 70 gallonsn of fuel when you do the math it is 32.5 mpg, speeds from 40 to 75 mph., not real good but worth every mpg for the fun I had, my riding partner was on a Harley Low Rider 6 Speed his mileage was 42.6 better but the level of comfort between the two put a big smile on my face, and by the way not one hint of trouble from either ride, not sorry at all I bought the 13.....has 11980 miles on the clock and the tires still look great, Just my take as a happy Spyder rider

you are right in line with what I get as well. i didn't purchase it for the mileage so it really doesn't bother me.

glad it is trouble free for you!

You are doing better than most. Cant get much over 30 mpg on my 2011. Sometimes get 31/32--but not very often.

gas mileage 2014 Limited

Just finished a 17000 km trip from Victoria, BC to St John's, Nfld and back on my 2014 rt limited. I checked a couple dozen tanks of fuel during the trip home through interstate 90. My average was 35.6 mpg using eco mode and 33. 1 when off eco mode. Been home a week and just now finished getting the bugs out of my teeth.
