Eco mode.

[PRD]

Eco is the way.

[Debs]

As soon as baby is started she is put in to eco mode.
I wish there was a way to keep it in that mode even when switched off.

[virginiajim]

I use my eco mode all the time.. Is that wrong?

Yes.  I never use Eco mode. 

[Boomer]

Eco mode? I could have sworn I bought a 1400cc 160bhp motorcycle. If I wanted Eco would have bought a Dullville.   :

[virginiajim]

Or a BMW...

[PRD]

It saves fuel then you have more for full power blasting!

With ECO mode you have the best of both worlds George 

Or a BMW...

Behave yourself you naughty lad    [/color]

Another vote for Eco mode. Should be the setting it comes on with. Call it normal and have to switch to Power mode and everyone would be happy.

Eco mode only has an effect up to 6000 rpm and for me, make the throttle response so much nicer in the real world. Doesn't stop you winding on or using the revs.

Yes.  I never use Eco mode. 

Have you got ECO mode on the silver bullet ?

[Charlie747]

Or a BMW...

Such harsh words Jim

I shudder at the thought of " You meet the nicest people on Dullville " 

Love the fact the GTR has a bit of spirit

Of course not...  The classic C14 models 08/09 only had ABS as an option.  It wasn't until the model 10 year they started putting that silly accessory on the bikes.

[Debs]

I do like eco mode.. Saves me money on fuel so I can ride her more often

Ok, I can see that point but I average about 45mpg even with thrashing it.  How much better is the gas mileage on Eco?

That depends somewhat on wind turbulence, tail wind, head wind, solo, two up, tyre pressures, (did we discuss them) pannier cases fitted or not screen adaptations which is something else we could throw in for discussion) pannier inner bags, tyre type, colour of bike (GREEN is fastest) .....and basically ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
