Thanks
I use 91 octane on my zong and get around 2.7 litres per 100km sometimes even less, but my cruising speed is 50km/h.

That's good information.

My cruising speed is 80 km/h, the Vento weight about 135 kg and I weight about 83 kg, could these variables making my low km/l (MPG)? I saw the Honda XR 150L that gets 48km/l at 60 km/h. So at very low speed all bikes will get decent MPG, right? I wonder the cruising speed of those who are getting more than me.

It's possible. My stats are based on 50km/h also mine has 16tooth front sprocket, apart from that it's stock. Everything changes the faster you go. You have different muffler and not sure if you changed jets too from the stock ones. Also it depends on your riding style. Not sure what is Spud getting?

My trip odometer broke several thousand miles ago, so I have not been keeping track of my fuel mileage. However, several days ago, I got a new odometer delivered from Taobao. In the past I would get 75 mpg on a regular basis.
