Very good, my RXT is better on fuel than my friends GTX SC 185. Mainly because he has to go every where on full throttle to try and keep up with me but on the RXT you can still go very fast without having to be on full throttle.

well depending on your riding style, if you are an aggressive rider than you can easily use a full tank which is 60L in 5 hours, but if you're just going to be cruising and doing aggressive riding once in a while then it's pretty efficient on gas. Keep in mind that you'll be gasing up high Octane Gas (91 or higher) and trust me it can get pretty costly after a while. So make sure you weigh out your options before purchasing an RXT or RXP for that matter. From my personal experience I love riding my RXT, it's a monster and so you have feed the monster the monster way $$$.

it's not that bad... WOT (wide open throttle) it's a guzzler, but just having fun you'll get a fulls days riding out of 16 gallons. I fill the tank up to the top, so I'm not sure how much fuel I actually have in it.

I only have 9 hrs on my '06. Rode it last weekend approx 3 hours, covered about 40 miles at around 30 MPH, used about 5 gal I think. I ride on a river and it was white-capping. Also, I'm only using 87 octane and it tops out around 70 - 73 mph. My first full throttle acceleration nearly slid me off the seat, wasn't prepared for that much pull. The first tank of gas went in about 4 hours but I was playing pretty hard on it. It uses less gas than the '97 GTX that I traded in.
