75 MPG

Ther's been some talk lately about a Q's MPG's.

I rode 70 miles today. 40 miles 50-65 MPH on the county roads, and 30 in the desert. The off roading was mostly sandy trails with hills, some hard packed stuff but mostly very loose. Little wind today, warm. I'm 175 lbs or so, and I was not babying the bike.

Used just under a gallon of gas.

Thought this info might help someone.

Will post a few pics when I get a chance.

Thank you for the report, Doc! Every motorcycle rider ought to own a great, little trail bike such as the XP200, or the Zong. If you are light on the throttle, you can easily average 85 mpg with these motorcycles. These light, nimble bikes are a lot of fun, and they are incredibly inexpensive to own, and operate!
