Better fuel consumption after mods

I have had my Dragster 180 for several months now, done about 3000km, split equal between standard and modified. When i purchased the Dragster it was standard except for a foam air filter and the previous owner said the carby was upjetted by 10%. It performed well, started first kick of the starter every time, and pulled about 8200rpm on the flat, although I felt it may have been a little bit rich but left it alone.
I have now fitted a malossi head, malossi ignition, PM59 pipe, PWK28 carby, Polini belt, green clutch springs and 13.7 rollers. The carby has JJH needle set position 2, 42 slow jet and 155 main jet. The scooter generally sits on either 80kph (50mph) or 100kph (63mph), with a small amount of 60kph (38mph). Max revs are up slightly to 8400, however fuel consumption is better, approximately an extra 35ks (bit over 20 miles) per tank of fuel.
Fuel consumption is just on 25 ks per litre (just on 70mpg). If I give it a bit of a flogging then consumption drops a fair bit.
How does this compare with other forum members dragsters.

yeah, fuel consumption would be the last consideration when buying a dragster, I was just surprised at how good it was for a 2T scooter.

 

lol i find this topic really random

 

LOL sod that.

 

Thats some impressive fuel consumtion, how the hell you manage that? :rofl: when I had 4x 36mm's I couldnt get them to drink that much....must be a 2 stroke/crazy porting/full throttle everywhere thing??

 

Think we might have this nailed ,doing a few calculations
