MPG on Your Trikes

[Destew57]

Hello Trikesters, I looking at purchasing a TriGlide. What I would like to know from you out there, what is the average gas mileage you guys and gals get on your TriGlides. Doesn't matter what year model or what upgrades you have, if you do reply just put what you have and the average mpg. I haven't purchased yet, just gathering info. Anyone can reply even if they have some other trike. Info is needed.

2014 TG. My MPG varies wildly, depending on how I ride and other variables.

25 mpg in heavy headwind...40+ in easy slower riding.

Normal (for me) everyday riding is in the mid 30's.

The M8's (2017) are getting better MPG than the '16 and earlier.

2011 Tri-Gilde.....true duels stage 1......36 To 38 MPG consistently...Always Adult driven And only Solo, Cause no one is willing to ride with me

[desertclassic]

Mid 30s when I am pushing hard and low 40s when I am going easy.

Gas mileage average riding solo at 60 mph to 75 mph is about 34 mpg.

Gas mileage average riding solo at under 60 mph or less is about 37 mpg.

Trike specs are outlined in the signature line.

2015 Freewheeler with VIEDs, de-catted head pipe, EBS and K & N air filter and I get 32-33 riding 60 - 65 mph. Will get 35 - 36 riding single below 60 mph. If I ride 70 plus mph the mileage will be around 30 mpg depending on headwind, etc.

My Friend,

I get 25-30 no matter how I ride. 2016 TG, some mods but never over 30 even without the mods.

Ride Safe and FREE!!!!!

I 2nd this reply... I've got a 2014 TriGlide with heavy engine mods and have never seen the 30s... But it sure does sound cool and I love the response when I twist the throttle!!!

I left the house yesterday morning for a trip to the VA clinic. Maybe 15 miles one way.Swung by the physical therapist on return.1 mile out of the way.Roughly 30 miles round trip.Had a 1/2 tank on start,1/4 tank when I got home.

In my opinion--that sucks and I don't like it.Man spends more time refueling than riding.

[1dn5up]

About 180 miles on a tank for me. But what I did notice that Mobil 93 gives the best mileage. My FLH with a 5gal tank gets 150 miles, however it's got lots of motor mods.

Did not care about mpg's on the toys, I figured all fun costs ya something

Just had a SE 120 ST engine installed. Previous mileage was close to 40 mpg with out ethanol. Now only 300 miles on the 120 ST and it has been 25-26. Hope that will improve when I get it Dyno tuned.
