When I bought my raider it had 333K miles on it, got 10mpg. New-to-me Mikuni carb with secondaries working, 12mpg. New gas cap and a new vacuum hose going to the brake booster: 15mpg. Following a semi for over 100 miles at 55mph with all my belongings in the back :19mpg.

I once went from 17mpg around town to 21mpg around town in a ford taurus just by easing off the gas and driving more smoothly.

My suggestion to you: Put a valve spring under your accelerator :p


1987 Raider, 346K miles and going strong -31" tires, otherwise stock.
