    Default trike gas mileage

    Hi,
    I was wondering what kind of gas mileage you guys were getting with your particular trike. Please note what make bike and trike manufacturer you have.

    I have an 1800 Goldwing with Motor Trike and I am getting 27mpg without a passenger.

    2008 Goldwing CSC. I just got mine. A recent 140 mile round trip with a passenger gave me 35mpg at 70mph mostly fwy and some town driving too. I noticed that the speedometer was 4 miles fast at 70 (I have a GPS) which probably lowers my mpg to...(uh...you do the math on that one)...probably 33-34 I guess. I've got just under 4000mi on my odometer. Motor was warm at both fill ups. Hope that helps.

    Running normally - 2 up below 3000 RPM we get right around 35mpg, little more or less. Towing the loaded Bunkhouse up the freeway at 75 - 80 it's down to about 28. Riding the twisties in the Ozarks jumps the mileage around the 40 mark as the speed and RPM goes way down. Pretty close to the reports of other GW1500 owners.
