Improve your Fuel Economy

Motorcycles, in theory, are fairly frugal. The engines are small, they don't have much weight to pull and they're pretty aerodynamic, so ridden with a little self restraint they'll return some decent fuel economic figures – and general speaking, the smaller and lighter the better, the smaller and lighter the better. Saying this, on one of the stupidly powerful motorcycles in motorcycle history, without trying to hard, we easily managed to surpass 20 kilometers per liter, riding not faster than 110km/h.
You can buy a Royal Enfield that advertised does over 35 kilometers on a single liter fuel, but then you may get fired for being late. Like with any ride though, you've got the choice of getting up earlier and going slower, or diving out of bed and rushing like hell.
