Question T100mpg vs. Scrambler mpg ('06's and later)

These bikes are essentially the same displacement engines but with very different hp's. The T100 has about 16% more hp. But the Scrambler is geared lower.

Does anyone have the mpg figures for these bikes? Assume "average" riding without beating up the throttle.

Thanks in advance,
Howard

Not sure if the crank configuration affects mpg or not, that being another difference in the two, but I consistantly get 50 mpg with TOR's, no snorkel or plate and jetted to match. My riding is mixed mountain/canyon and city.

I have done about 500 miles on my new to me 2007 T100. Average MPG is 55 without going mad on all road types/speeds.

I have just (tonight) removed th air injection so it will be interesting to see if there is much difference.

Not sure about the scrambler's MPG
