fast87 Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 i run the graydon setup with a 35mm PWK and get about 2.5hrs on a tank...i never had stockers on so i cant really compare, but i would think you use the same amount of fuel since every intake/compression stroke can onl;y take in so much fiel/air..unless you do engine(compression) mods the feeding system(carb) should put the same amount to the combustion chamber..basically i'm saying it should be the same as stock, or a little more, the benefits of the 2:1 setup are worth it ~Mark~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, and I don't mean any offense by this, is gas usage a big concern? I can't imagine it would use a significant amount more fuel, and I don't ride my Banshee for fuel mileage, otherwise I'd be on a 4-poke. If you're looking for more bottom end, then the single carb seems to be the way to go, but still the performance advantage you would be seeking to gain would outweight the decrease in fuel economy, in my opinon.
