Greetings fuel misers!

[smalldisplacementfreak]

I am so happy that I stumbled over this site. I thought I was the only person in the world, here in So Cal, that worried about fuel consumption. People around here have large SUVs and drive extremely fast - they have blatant disregard for such a precious resource. Although I have a few vehicles, they are all small in displacement <2.0l. I have an 03 Honda Civic (1.7l and gets around 32 - 36 mpg - daily driver. I have two 250cc motorcycles, a Ninja 250! Woot! (50+mpg) the way I ride, and a GZ250 that gives me close to 80mpg! - I ride this one a lot more laid back. I switch off time to time to spread the miles to work and back around.

Anyways, I'm here and am going try to be an interactive participant on this website and hope to learn a few more tricks of the trade.

Thank you all!

welcome to the site i felt the same way when i found this site! the first thing you should do is make some garage entrys for your cars and bikes so we can watch the #s get even better. BTW welcome to the site

Hey, welcome.

I had a Ninja 250 a few years ago. Also I'm a fan of small displacement motors (obviously).

I was thinking just this morning while I was driving along: this motor (993 cc / 49 hp) is too powerful.

I think DaX sold the Beat to a micro-car museum, but there's still lots of meat and potato info to read ...
