Anyone who has a Zuma 50. What is your MPG?

[alex45223]

For years I never tracked mine. I thought I was getting prob 70 or 80 mpg. But found out i'm only getting like 50 to 60 maybe at best. Is this normal?

Stock I'd say I was getting about 70MPG, although it was only stock for about 3 weeks. Now with the 70cc kit I probably get closer to 50-55, but it's a lot more fun

Yeah I don't think this has any modifications aside from maybe shaved .. idk what its called when you can pull the gas more on the handle. Mine bike has over 9000 miles. idk if it's considered high mileage or not.

It's had the throttle stop removed then? 👍
I guess the restriction ring has also been removed from the variator as well? This can cause poor gas mileage. As the bike revs higher at higher speeds.

50-55 mpg after I went 70cc and a pipe 70 plus before upgrades

Hey, how much faster does that make the bike go? Wondering if it's worth it to keep...

If it's not much difference. Been thinking of upgrading it to the 70 CC big bore whatnot. Since the MPGs are roughly what mine is now.

This video says from 37MPH up to 43.

I was shocked my '94 ya50 axis was better on gas with a chamber than with a stock one. Bone stock with the catalyic converter it would do 1:35-ish (metric) and 1:50-ish (metric) with yasuni R.
