Why is it that I can get about the same fuel efficiency out of my Kia Optima 2 Liter Turbo that weighs 3400 pounds with 175 horsepower as I get out of my 600 and some pound Ryker Rally edition 900 cc that cranks out 77 horsepower??? Just saying.opcorn:

Run your Kia at 5000 - 5500 RPMs 95% of the time and then tell us what your mileage is. I had a Yamaha Bolt (950 cc) just before my Ryker and it got 55 mpg. The difference is the Bolt ran around 2500 - 3000 rpm (guessing).
