Must be nice. My 600 at 800 miles on my last full tankful got 33.7 MPG with 87 octane, and my current tankful using PREMIUM (just for grins) doing exact same riding is on track for 33.3 MPG.

Truth is the gas mileage on these trikes suck!
It does matter to a lot of us that bought one and were given a non answer when we asked about gas mileage.
Got it, my fault for not getting a direct answer.
Won't trust the dealer again. Get a direct answer.

Not my Piaggio MP3 500 trike. I got about 50 MPG, and it was about same weight as Ryker 600. The good news is that the Ryker has a much bigger fuel tank.

What are people doing to get 50+ mpg? I tried slow and easy driving, I tried more aggressive, the best I could get is 30mpg, by actually measuring each tank and using the avg on the speedo. I feel like to achieve 50 I need to barely accelerate, which is pointless. It's crazy considering my 750 motorcycle got 55 mpg no problem with a performance exhaust, intake and me driving like a bat out of hell most of the time.

Nobody gets anywhere near 50 MPG with a Ryker. I said I got that with a Piaggio MP3 500.

Captaintooty literally stated he was getting 50 on his 600 a few posts before mine. Other people said they are getting near 40. I'm just curious how they are achieving that.
