what kind of mileage can i expect if i get this f6?
sorry about all the questions guys, but i really nead to pick your brians about this sled. unfortunetly with there only being so many put on the market last year there are very few that have any experience with them and this by far the best place to look for answers.
thanx

I bought one in the end of Feb.. The thing rocks, it can keep up to my 800. In a 67 mile ride it ran $7.00 cheaper then my 800. When i rode with a Mxz600 last year my 800 would run about $3.00 more then the 600, and about $6.00 to $7.00 more then a Srx700. So in my mind they are an awsome sled.

Yah, but you can't trust anyone from Beaverton!! lol
Just kidding there Dave!!
Dawg, from what I have heard, really good milage for a 600. It gets better as the sled is broke in.
It has better gas milage then a 2002 ZR 600 if that helps! lol
Much better motor in my mind, the thing is based on the 700 block, so mods would be very easy!! BIG BORE!!

dawg I think the gas milage will be a little low since you're going be pinning it all the time since it's such a fun sled. If you can control yourself for a while it should get good milage.
rob, if the f6 is as fun and fast as everyone says it is. i'll put up with a little less gas mileage.
u are true about me not being able to control myself. i cant wait to run it against my zr 8 this january when the ice freezes over.
if u consider the power of this sled...sopposedly 118 hp and i my older 98 ext 600 had around 118 so they say. well u put that hp in a lighter sled and it should be sweet. We all know that those 600 triples from AC were one heck of a fast engine. :D

Dawg, here are some hard numbers on that sled. 472 pounds [no gas] 120.8 hp, 80.4 foot pounds@7800 rpm's, 13.72 mpg's average over 1643 miles, sounds pretty good for a 6 don't it?.....
3eyedcat, where did u get that information. specially about the hp and tourque?

it doesn't matter now because puppy has spent the mother load and bought the sled.
