We just got back from a little run into Ark to the Changing of Colors CMA Rally pulling the Roll-A-Home ( a little heave unit when I get it loaded 75 or so tongue weight ) On this trip I was glad to see that I was getting about 22 MPG but compared to the 18/19 of the last trip,,, that is good. I talked to a couple of other Venture Trike riders at the rally to find that they also seem to be getting as little as 18 to 22. While just two up I seem to get 29 to 31... I am still getting use to the V-4 being a hi-rev engine, and have been staying in 4th for the most part up to 70 or so. I normally don't ride that fast 68 cruse set on the GL1800, just under 3000 RPM's great power, and good MPG with or with out the camper, and plenty of power. I have found that with no Tach on the RSV it is hard to tell just what you are doing, but this Trike just seems to want to go at 74/76 (GPS Speed 78/80 bike speed-o )
What are some of you getting on your Trike for gas mileage with or with out pulling a trailer.
