Fuel mileage

So what kind of fuel milege are people getting out of there pros..im trying to decide if i need to bring spare fuel with me. Any help greatly appreciated
 
seems to me we get about 60miles on a normal day of mountain riding including the trail in/out and i burnt just about all of my spare gas too by the time we were done.
 
They get pretty good mileage compared to older sleds, i usually carry a gallon and stash it along the trail in just in case..only needed it one time. But yeah if we r riding all day hard the group always brings some extra for everyone.

Really? I have gone 63 miles busting powder, climbing and boondocking just over 7 gallons of fuel.
I quit worrying about carrying fuel.

Be prepared, you never know when you may get caught short, it could mean the difference between life and death in the BC. I haven't used my spare for my pro yet, but its been close. As others have said, they seem to be a little easier on the juice than earlier models. My spare can got a Yamaha out of the BC last year and a cat that ran out in the parking lot, they had used there spares and had been riding much more intense than me that day.

I stashed my can on Baker once and some one took it, if you stash a can make sure it can't be seen.
 
X2 on what Turbolover said. Usually do 40-60 miles per ride and never use more than 5-7 gls. of fuel. And oil consumption is very low also.
 
I can ride all day on a tank.


We Wish!!!

Heck.. i can empty a tank in less then 3 HRS..



But Yes a Tank can last all day... But not Remember Your Not Riding ALL Day.. Ur taking Breaks... / Stucks.. Pics..


Its all how Hard you ride it in how long it will last
 
I could ride all day on my revs without extra fuel and they are only 10.6 gallons. If the pro is close on fuel milage with the rev I look at as if I am already carring an extra gallon. My revs were very easy on fuel though.
 
Well I'm riding pretty hard all day....trailer it in, so Im off trail pretty quick.....dont take many breaks and get after it pretty good.....and a tank usually is enough...barely, but enough.

yeah, thats me in tree well :face-icon-small-ton

I never needed spare gas once last year on the Pro. Some rides were from 10am to 5 or 6 at night and would always return above 1/4, it gets good fuel mileage compared to my a rev or XP that I had.

these are tree riding times not trail times
 
Rented a Pro last year for a "demo" run out west and was impressed on how good it was on fuel. We would leave usually around 10 ish and run most of the day and would return each day with some to spare. The Dragons that were with and the M8 were always a lot lower or had to top off for the return.
