tapex mcx kit fuel mileage?

hey guys, just a general question, whats the mileage you all get with your turbo apex's? this ones got a mcx, but basically i "think" im running 260 or 270 horse, its got the 310, older kit with a switch you just flip to either be more or less boost... i flipped it down for less

that being said, i went out for a ride, 90 km's, approx 40 or so of that is trail riding alone, rest is up playing around in the mountains and finding our way around,... SO 90 km's and my tanks empty, or it at least says it has 1 bar of fuel left.... i was playing around somewhat, every hill i can run out, i'd do it WOT because its fun... but beyond that i was not riding really hard or going crazy, snow was not deep, it was fairly easy going with well setup snow... so was not a challenge getting around

my engagement rpm is also about 5000 rpm, seems kind of high, but maybe not?

so what do you guys get for mileage?
 
Mileage is dictated by your right thumb. A long trail ride will use less than a stock 2 stroke, but when you squeeze the trigger, mileage goes down. Takes fuel to make hp. You said every hill was WOT. That burns fuel. Your thumb will get smoother, eventually.

oh i know, but power is fun eh, i know power is fuel :) , i managed to go 30 km's on that trip and tank said full, then the other 30 or 40 km's i went down like, 3/4 the tank, and had 1.5-2 bars on the way home which is another 20 kms ha ha, so yeah i can see sled getting good mileage providing staying out of boost

i had a Turbo ski doo 1000, made a kit for it and turbo hit hard and fast, you really had to learn to use the thumb on that thing, it was almost on or off, atleast this apex is very smooth :)
