Motorbike fuel

I got a 101cc scooter and is about 18 years old but done less then a thousand on the clock so still like new.

I use it to go to work so travel about 50 miles a day on it and fill up every 3 days or so which costs roughy £8-£10 a week.

Any one use there motorbike for work, how is your filling up compared to mine I think mine does just over 100mpg

My bike does just between 38 and 46MPG, but it does have 10x the capacity and probably at least 20x the power of a 100cc scoot.


I fill it every 120miles or so, each time costing me about £15-16.

600cc bike here, costs about £16 to fill and I will get about 160 miles out of it if I am not kicking it's head in

I do miss 150+ mile tank range.

My 600cc sportsbike gets about 45mpg, my old 125cc got 80-100mpg depending on how hard I was riding.

I have a 250cc single cylinder 4 stroke with fuel injection and ride approx 15 miles a day. its only has a small fuel tank, 7.7L so generally put in just under £6 per week with a bit of riding at the weekend.

I did a work it out over a few months last year and was getting just under 100 mpg

I would have expected a 101cc to be getting a better mpg but maybe they dont.

100cc scoot likely to be a twist and go though, loads of transmission loss in there...

I had a 50cc scooter 15 year ago and used it for work 4 mile round trip. About £5 filled the tank and it lasted 2 weeks, no idea about the MPG.

You think it does over 100mpg? You only put in £4 or £5? 3.5 - 4litres?
2 stroke or 4 stroke.

I used to get 6 weeks from less than 12L

I used to average about 45mpg on my 600cc, I tried a few times to ride as economically as I could to see what it could do, it never lasted more than 20 miles!!!, I would love to know how many miles I could have got out of a tank!!
