I realise this is treading over old ground here, but I wanted to hear from berg riders that have gone from del orto equipped bikes to the new keihin (?) equipped bikes. My 99 400 would get no less than 38 mpg, no matter how hard I rode it. As i read more and more magazine articles about various bikes, it seems they all get about 40 miles to a 2 gallon tank. That would be ktm, honda, yamaha, etc. These bikes all share the same carb/ignition combo as the new bergs. Are the new bikes really only getting about 20mpg? Furthermore, the del orto carb seemed like it didnt care what elevation it was at , it simply didnt have jetting issues. Are the new carbs like this?
