jayzx10r Posted January 21, 2007 Report Posted January 21, 2007 I'm gonna hit Glamis next week for a couple of days but I have no idea on the fuel consumption of my new Banshee. What do you recommend? I like to ride more than sit around but if I have a cooler...... Thanks for the input... Jay From SanD. Quote

So you go through 23 gallons over a weekend....or about 10 gallons a day? :shrug: Thanks...Jay. Quote
theshee Posted January 21, 2007 Report Posted January 21, 2007 When we are up at KP we will burn over 30 gallons in two days, with two bikes. Quote
BigRed350x Posted January 21, 2007 Report Posted January 21, 2007 Fuck, you guys must not ride much. I will burn 30gal in a day and a half at KP. If I'm going to KP and plan on staying out there, not comming back to town each night where I can fill up I will bring about 40gal of gas to last me a weekend. Sometimes I will bring a little bit home, but if its a good weekend I will burn all of it. But I don't stop riding just because its dark. I ride all through the night and typically sleep during mid-day when its too fucking hot to ride at KP. Quote
bada450r Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 the most i have taken is 30 gallons to glamis,and i come back w maybe 2 gal on my tank,and we ride all day all night,thats from saturday morning to sunday oruond 6 or 7 at night. :: :: Quote
Animalman294 Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 Yeah, I'm kinda curious as to how much fuel I am going to need for my cubby when I go out. I guess if I run out I run out, and know I need to bring more next next time............. :thumbsup: Quote

I ride all through the night and typically sleep during mid-day when its too fucking hot to ride at KP. That was with four strokes too.... Never had a shee there yet. I cant ride through the night, cuz we usually start drinking by 7 or 8, so it would get way fucked up if I went and rode all shit faced.. LOL Quote
scooter Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 i take 10 gallons a day if im going to big dunes 5 gallons if im going to the local ones with my tank full when i get there and i dont do much night riding.we drink beer and eat at night. but better too bring to much than not enough.i allways bring extra 2stroke oil too.

I pretty much do the exact same thing. :thumbsup: Quote
BigRed350x Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 Sounds like maybe I shouldn't drink so much of my gas and put more in my tank. LOL - Jared Quote
ClimbAnyHill Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 This time I'll prob take 15 gal + the 4 1/2 gal that my tank holds. Someone in the camp always has extra gas so I can borrow if needed. A night ride is the other half of the fun :thumbsup: Quote
wwhite749 Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 (edited) i take 20 extra gallons and my desert tank that holds a little over 5 gallons to glamis, and for the most part i come home with gas Edited January 22, 2007 by wwhite749 Quote
Animalman294 Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 Yeah, I'm leaning toward the 15 plus what I can put in the tank.................. :thumbsup: Quote
jayzx10r Posted January 23, 2007 Author Report Posted January 23, 2007 Thanks for the heads up on Banshee fuel consumption. Cycle Gear is having a 25% off Chemicals and Lubes Coupon day...I think it is Feb 3rd... I wonder if C12 is considered to be a chemical?? :yelrotflmao: Quote
