Key Factors Affecting Fuel Efficiency

  • Riding Style: Aggressive acceleration/high speeds reduce MPG
  • Bike Type: Scooters (e.g., 125cc) often more efficient than motorcycles of the same size
  • Weight & Aerodynamics: Heavy bikes/cruisers consume more fuel
  • Maintenance: Well-maintained engines and tires improve efficiency

Important Notes

UK vs. US Gallons: UK MPG uses imperial gallons (1 imperial gallon ≈ 1.2 US gallons) – figures ~20% higher than US ratings.

Real-World Variability: Manufacturer claims often differ from actual usage. Urban vs highway riding impacts results.

For precise figures, consult UK Vehicle Certification Agency (VCA) or manufacturer specs.
