Mileage question for1987-1990 Hurricanes
Hi everyone,
What is the average mileage on a tank without reserve. I have a 1988 hurricane that I just bought and would like to have an idea if the mileage with different cbr1000 hurricanes of the same year. Taking into consideration different driving styles.
Thanks for any information

On average I get about 150 miles before I have to kick in the reserve. Now this is based on commuting to work so taking it easy. With more agressive riding I'd say between 130 and 140 before reserve. I have goten up to 170 on longer highway rides.

You know, I'm glad he asked that question!!!! I was wondering the same thing!!! I'm getting about 135-145 a tank myself, but I like to scoot sometimes so its hard to tell how accurate it is. Tell ya what, the gas mileage makes me miss my Katana!!! I would get 250 mpt (Yeah, miles per tank) with that bike! But it didn't have near the peformance.. I guess something has to suffer, and it looks like the gas mileage did. Oh well... 10 bux to fill up is a LOT better than 30 in my car! hehehehe.

No I have to remember how to convert into Miles. Damm imperial system. :P
For commutting I get 115 Miles before reserve. But I'm a big boy and its all most inefficient high rpm low gear stuff.
For country hooning I get 100 Miles and that is where the speed stays above 120mph.
But for Touring I have done 150miles.
