Gas milage? Thats a loaded question for a sxs lol. What conditions, tires size stock 27,28,29,30,31? Not to bust your balls but i didnt buy one for the milage lol. I couldnt tell you the average miles i get out of the tank it varies so much with where and how i ride lol. I can tell u the type of gas i use tho. I like to use Rec fuel when i can and mid grade when no rec fuel is available. But when Biden closed the Keystone pipe line screwed us all! and the price of fuel right now, rec fuel is crazy expencvie.
Typically I get around 20 mpg. If running some of the more treacherous trails with a lot of crawling in low range, the mileage drops to around 15-18. I won’t own anything that needs anything but regular gas.
System3 XTR 350’s 10x14x28 and not a lot of highway. Didn’t really see any mileage difference from the factory 27’s.
Interesting. I have 30”LT’s and there a slight bit heavier than std UTV tires. Your RPM also changes with the bigger wheels also. Would be interesting in a full tank. on lets say dirt road normal driving to see the difference in a tank. From what u have said, id say with my driving im getting 15ish lol
You have to remember I’m in Arizona, no mud, occasional stream crossings and some fairly grainy sand in most of the washes. It’s not blow sand like Utah but decomposed granite. Lots of rocky trails.
I was reading/following this post and wondered how far a tank of gas would get. I don't have mine yet but wondered if getting an add-on or carry-with gas can would be an option to consider. Thanks for the input.
You should at least get a 100+ miles on a tank unless you're doing some all day long, slow rough trails. If they're that slow and rough, you won't be covering a 100 miles in a day anyways. I always take fuel when I know I'm potentially doing a 100 miles but I've yet to actually need it.
I have had one in my machine for years. You never know when youll need it. Ive needed it once and bailed another rider out another.
Thats cool your able to nail it down to The specifics.
Even people with heavy duty trucks like to know how far they can go before before having to refuel. As erratic as the Honda gas gauges are it’s a good idea to know how much extra gas to pack along. Hitch hiking on a highway for gas is a lot easier than hiking in the back country for 25 miles because your gauge was off. The difference between 18-19 Mpg empty and 11-1/2 Mpg loaded with a 30 gallon tank is a lot of miles.
