AMSOIL Customers Appreciate Greater MPG
Despite the fact results vary because of a variety of factors, a common denominator among AMSOIL motor oil users is an improvement in fuel economy. Independent testing reveals that AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 motor oil passes the API Energy Conservation Sequence VI test with a rating 38 percent higher than the API minimum specifications.
“In most cases it can increase mileage, but at the very least you’re getting superior engine protection.”
Ralph Sites, a police officer in Rustburg, Va. “I had been getting 30 miles per gallon,” Sites divulged.
His first oil change to AMSOIL, improved his mileage to 38 miles per gallon. At 6,500 miles on the engine, after replacing the final drive oil with AMSOIL Series 2000 75W-90 Gear Lube, he improved to 40 miles per gallon. “I switched to AMSOIL for the long-term gain. The improved gas mileage was just a bonus.
Anybody who comes and gets the AMSOIL motor oil in their motorcycle comes back with their cars,” he said.
Additionally, Lance Okeson of St. gained miles per gallon after switching to AMSOIL motor oil in his 1995 Cutlass Supreme.
Okeson made the switch after learning about AMSOIL from a customer of his at a quick lube where he works. A trip from the Twin Cities to Fargo, ND, in a steady 17 mile-per-hour wind, and back showed him an increase from 24 mpg to 30.5 mpg.

Its very interesting to read statistics of some of the most used motorcycles, a good motorcycle riding at an average speed should average at least 41-45mpg while if you push it, consuming over 60mpg will just be the norm rather than the exception. Gas mileage refers to the energy efficiency of a particular vehicle. Gas Mileage is the output of ratio of range units per unit of gasoline. This ratio is measured as L/100 km, or miles per gallon. Gas mileage depends on engine of vehicle i.e. properties of engine, vehicle body weight.
The most important factors that determine motorcycle gas mileage are the riding styles of your bike, motorbike horsepower, the arodynamics of the bike and whether your bike is tuned for economy consumption or not.

Types of fuels used in motorcycle:
Diesel: It has efficiency of burning 50% compare to gasoline.
Gasoline: It is used in sports cars. It reduces pollution. It is light in weight and performs at high speeds.
