    Price at the pump

    I did a thread on this last year, and i got the urge to do it again this year.

    Tell where you live, what you ride, how you ride it, miles per gallom, and what you paid last for gas.

    I live in the central mid west. i have a 94 F2 with a two bros slip on, and i use my bike for commuting and twisties on the weekends. i get 35-45mpg depending on how i ride in the cities 55mpg on the highway.

    Last time i filled up with 89oct i paid $4.18 (that was the recent high usually has been $3.93)

    '94 CBR F2
    Two Brothers slip on
    K&N filter
    Fender elim with LED tail and signals
    Frame sliders

    Soon
    jet kit?
    520 (0/+3)?

    '06 F4I

    Leo Vince slip-on

    Cumming, GA (about 50 miles north of atlanta)

    I paid $4.59 (93 octane) and once paid $4.79 (93 octane)

    I mainly stay in the twisties, so I'm not really sure of the exact gas mileage.

    I live in Tewksbury, MA, and have an '02 F4i.

    Last fill-up was $4.15 for 93 oct, I get about 40-45 MPG and about 50-55 MPG HWY.

    Mileage varies since sometimes I push it hard and othertimes I just cruise along.

    Dude, the extra charge for credit card transactions is not right! (but not illegal). Visa/MC/Amex do not allow it per their contractual agreements with the stations and the stations can lose their ability to accept credit cards in the future if the credit card companies find out about it.

    I'd rat them out!!!

    i wasnt aware of this.  however, their sneaky way around it is to not accept credit cards and charge for debit transactions.  whenever u use your pin #, there is a service charge from the bank.  apparently its only 7-10cents, which makes the 40cents the stations charge seem ridiculous.

    Paid 4.27 for 93 octane the other day but gas prices are going down!!!

    O and hondajunkie what rpms do you run at going like 60 mph cause my -1+2 chain and sprocket 520 conversion is coming today and i am hoping i dont sacrafice to much of my 46mpg. I could handle seeing like 40 mpg.
