My first street legal bike was a yamaha trailway 200. I used it as a commuter and weekend trailbike and it was damn near indistructable and got like 60-80mpg. I alaways think about getting another dualsport for commuting cause they are so easy to handle and if i do its not gonna be a 200cc.

The new WR250X from Yamaha is calling my name as a commuter...

Trailbikes get nearly the same mileage as scooters but look way cooler.

Why not get a buell blast as a commuter? I got about 65 mpg on my last tank and rode it hard as hell.

I like the blast but i have two street bikes already (sportster and gsxr) and the sportster gets upto 50mpg when riden in a commuting way.

My bike hit 47 one tank before my mods and when I was just baby'n it to and from work...

now it's more like 37 :lol:

I can get into the 50's if i play nice on the SV

Don't think i'll be so lucky on the 1125, judging by the milage computer.

well that was in AK... I imagine in ND I could have run up into the 50's... no hills to go up... though you've gotta watch that wind :lol:

I'm hearing mid 30's on avg for the big 1125.

i heard they are neutared puppys that suckle gas like it was from a big dogs teet...
