depends on how your ride tbh ,, on my bike i filled up thursday afternoon and brimed it,, think it came to something like 9 or 10 quid (dont really check because its not like i need a lot of fuel with a small-ish tank ) and its lasted me up till today and its in the red zone again thats because ive been having it over 5k revs for most of the time but if i have it in 6th gear its like a cruize gear because the revs drop about 3k but the speed stays the same untill you put throttle on obv lol but when i drive on an eco run it can last upto a week and a half maybe more,,, all just depends on your riding style
I understand how u feel mark cus ine of me mates has got a honda express and its very old too and tbh ibdont really rag my bike at all but i suppose its drinking like a horse cus ive got a 21 mm carb open air filter and a like 94 jet

Sorry to hear that mate why it fail whats up with it?
My 125 MZ needed about £6 a week in petrol, and I ragged it around everywhere, redlined it through every gear change, just can't help myself 
MZ's don't really do anything but lastaccyuklad said:lol guess your engine wont last
Are MZ's and good? Heard the suspension aint too good on em
They're strong, pretty quick and reliable, just ugly.Are MZ's and good? Heard the suspension aint too good on em
I've done alot to mine to make it look good and turn heads, exhaust, airfilter, back light unit, indicators, shorter mudguards, lowered tank and more, I wouldn't have been seen dead on it if it was standard.
The suspension isn't too great which is why I've put on a set of Hagon's on the back of mine now with rebuilding it.
used to use atleast a tank of petrol every 2 days on the cbf. was absolutely shite but then I ragged it through everygear, wheelied it, greenlaned it. for a 2 year old bike though it was shocking. tank of petrol was roughly £10 
Yh i go through a full tank in like 2/3 days and gotta premix which is a pain tbh
for me X8 about £15 once a week (i do 30 miles a day) YBR £15 every 2 weeks if not a lot more
£5 every 2-3 days but thats wheelieing alot and thrashing about places if take it steadier can make the fiver last 4 days if am lucky lol ill probly be putting fiver in every day or 2 wen av fitted 172 kit and rest of my goodies but itl be worth it 
failed due to steering bearings, rear brakes and suspension ( i'm not a fat git
)
net cuple of weeks, i'll be back on the road
net cuple of weeks, i'll be back on the road
i used to put about £10 a week in on average, if i didnt make any unneccesary rides id do about £5 a week
