Can someone give me an idea what kind of mileage I can expect from my bike in NW Lower Michigan woods riding?
It has the snorkle pulled and is jetted to compensate.

I would like to know this as well. How come no one is responding???

If I ride hard, I get usually about 20-25mpg. But when more on the casual side, up to 35 mpg. I have pipe, holes in airbox, no snorkle, and at sea level with 162mj/EKP needle/48pj. Elevation plays a big role, as well as your jetting/throttle habbits...Hope it helps.

Beefking sounds about right, my buddy's DRZ 400 gets about 50 - 60 miles out of a tank during fairly hard woods riding. We are riding in the 6- 8 thousand foot level. That bike could really use a bigger tank, my WR 426 gets at least twice the mileage as his bike does. WR Dave.

Kevin,
I have gotten 86 miles on my DRZ while 2 tracking, still did not hit reserve. Normally fill up around 50-60 miles when we do our trail rides. With your riding style you should get 70 miles no problem.
