Effect on mileage by mods?

[GoJonny]

im thinking of getting the stage 2 upgrade for my 2005 zuma . . . just wondering if anyone knows the hit i'll take in gas mileage from the different mods. thanx.

I don't have the stage 2 myself, but I've heard you'll be getting around 65mpg.

Mods to your scooter will cut back your mpg's but so does proper tire pressure, riding style, and speed. My Vino took a nose dive after derestriction not because the jet was bigger though it had played part of it, but what killed me was I started riding the scooter faster.

I feel you on that one King lol :D

Hotrodders have never cared about fuel mileage. The idea of modifying is PERFORMANCE! It's always a trade off, you sacrifice some things for speed and handling.

Still going to get more than my trucks or cars no matter what stage I go to is the way I look at it...

I thikn I'm getting between 50mpg and 60mpg depending on how had I ride...


I usually am under 35 mph.... Since that what the roads are here... If I'm at WOT... I bet it would be drastically less... as in around 45mpg or so...


Still from 75mpg or so... to 50-60... with the performance upgrades... I'm very very happy!
