Mileage?

[BearCat]

For anyone running a 700 or 800 polaris, what kind of mileage, on average, are you getting? I'm not complaining here just curious. I haven't been on any longer trips yet that require taking extra fuel. But have a couple planned that will cover up to approx. 120miles over a weekend.

what kind of mileage

POOR.................I think less than 15mpg depending on conditions.... my carb Brute force 750 is about the same. I think the CVT trans has a lot to do with it, running at a higher rpm most of the time. ( Larry have you checked your suz 700 efi for mileage??)

04 700 EFI

best, 27 MPG, average 16-17 MPG

All depending on riding conditions.

It's hard for me to say, since I'm usually going so slow....


But I will say....If I'm heavy on the thumb....she sucks it down.

All except the last one...were at like 1 MPH.


I told someone that the story on Wednesday, and showed the pictures....they were in stitches...."NO WAY...."

I am lucky to get 50 miles on a tank of gas in the 700efi. My pals 800 is only good for about 45 miles. So carry extra gas for the extended rides.

[Ken]

Now that I think about a ride this summer. I went 49 miles and I still had gas in the tank. The ride went from 2800 feet to 7,000 feet, and down another 1000 feet. So a lot of climbing.

[Mr. Miyagi]

Ken, you and I did 53 miles a couple of times on one tank.....

[DAVE]

I just read a test on the Brute and the guy said that he went 100 miles on one tank..............sound like a bunch bs to me, I think I would be lucky to go 70 miles under perfect conditions....brute 750 holds 5.4 Gallons.

Maybe coasting 40 miles down a hill with the engine turned off..... How do these guys come up with this stuff?

That's like saying Rogue or Chadd got laid..... never gonna happen..... roflmao.

I don't know about that they have spent some time in the woods together.

[Mr. Miyagi]

I don't know about that they have spent some time in the woods together.

Well then, I guess there's some hope for the Brute after all.....

Thats right, I forgot. If I remember, we still had some left..enough that we weren't concerned.


Ironically, I ran out...on that Rubicon trip in May...which is only 26 miles.

Wow, lol. I'm impressed, even Dave is taking shots now.
