This I find kind of weird.....

I looked-up my 1996 Trophy and the 1200 gets better mileage than the 900????

Are you saying you have a gas hog?

 

[The Seeker]

I'm saying I'm surprised to see that 4 carbs gets better mileage than does 3.

It's also better than a Rocket III.

 

[CarlS]

The RIII is definitely not known for it fuel mileage.

 

[Ksquared]

The figure(s) posted for the R3 (and R3T) are absurd - I don't know anyone who gets anything NEAR 39.5 on a Rocket 3. Perhaps they're using Imperial gallons?

that was my first thought Kerry because they quote 49mpg for my america which is pretty much spot on,
however they also say 4.7 L/100k whereas I use 5.7, so now I'm confused.Mind you, I confuse easily.

 

[The Seeker]

Well, I never cared that much what actual mileage I got, but I am positive I don't get anywhere near 44 MPG with my Trophy 1200 and never did.
