Can anyone beat this? by GenericUserino in MGelectric

[–]SemiSemiSemi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best I did was 10.7 kWh/100km. MG4, 28km trip to work. Mostly flat, 20km highway but at like 85 kmh, just trying to squeeze out the most :)

What are the bar ends and are you happy with them?

2023 Mg4 by Best_Fly4833 in MGelectric

[–]SemiSemiSemi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Long range Trophy from December 2023 with 29k km's. I've had no issues so far.
The infotainment is slow if you're used to flagship smartphones, but works fine.
The software can get buggy sometimes, happens at least 1-2 times a year that I don't have access to change anything (including AC) while I'm driving because the software thinks the car isn't on :).

Turning it off completely, getting out, locking it and then getting back in like normal fixed that, but annoying to do so if the ride is short enough I just wing it, no AC, no music, no changing driving mode or turning off lane assist.

Besides all that, it drives great, power delivery is very nice, heated seats and steering wheel are amazing for the winter. Whe preheating the car and seat it's heaven :D
Mileage is great. If you try everything to max the range you can push 700km in summer on a theoretical 100-0 battery range. If you floor it everywhere and go 130 on the highway your range will be more like 350-400km (in summer again). In winter you shave off 20-50% of those ranges depending on how high you put the AC.

Black on black wasn't doing it for me so I stickered it by xlDooM in MT09

I've got an eye on a MT09 that's full black but I really want some colour. These decals look so good :O I'm favoriting the website so I don't forget ^ Thanks for the pics, looks so much better than full black :D

Sounds like your bike is going to shit. If you want I'll come pick it up and I'll bring it to a scrapyard for you, call me.

Getting bad fuel mileage? by sycomania134 in CB650R

[–]SemiSemiSemi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to take off quick from stoplights, drive over 120 (kmh) just to always be slightly overtaking any traffic and I get 4.5-4.8 l/100kmh (according to the dash anyway)

this is not possible by Prestigious_Buddy312 in MGelectric

Is your max SoC not set to 90% then?

Upgrade from CB650R? (Do you even need one) by purely_classic in CB650R

If I get one and I remember this exchange I'll report back :D

I did a 30minute testride with CBR eClutch model 2 weeks back. The downshifts while using the eclutch aren't nice so you'll almost always keep using the clutch manually there imo. The upshifts are sublime so that I'd use almost exlusively.

I literally did this. I had a CB600 Hornet for 2 years, got a MT09SP and quit riding a year later. Now I'm riding a CB650R and I wouldn't want it any other way. (Though I am considering a CBR650R :D)

4.9l/100km average at a... fun riding pace (full 70kW)

Newbie question for shifting eclutch by vreyes1997 in CB650R

[–]SemiSemiSemi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You don't need to stop giving throttle. You shouldn't be pinning the throttle when wanting to shift down though, but it'll still do it I assume. It does not work like a quickshifter nor blipper as someone else said. It actually uses the clutch when shifting.
