Anybody know what the range of the Titan is? I have not pushed it but it seems to be around 30 miles.

With my weight at 290 and that 48 tooth rear sprocket I have gone 20 miles on a tank minimum while cruising.
When I had my 44t and my weight was closer to 250 I had gone further closer to 30 miles.
I know I can go more after losing more weight. 40 miles on that 1/4 gallon tank is way doable if you weigh something like 150 on a 44t or even a 40t or a 36t and if you keep a CONSISTANT speed of 20 mph non stop. This seems to get the most range when your engine is just purring with low resistance.

I've got about 45 miles per tank at about 12-15 MPH. I shut off the engine and coast down hills though.

I did 60 miles today, and currently have 36 miles on a tank, there is still some fuel in there. I don't know how much fuel the tank holds yet.

That was running at a target speed of 20 mph on paved and some gravel roads, with a few two track trails.

Tank Report
0.282 gallons
$0.67 to fill tank
$2.389 gallon price

43.222 miles
17.7 mph avg speed
30.1 max speed

153.3 mpg

Not too bad!

I ran out of gas while rolling to the gas pump, so this is the capacity of the tank.

With the Titan chain Drive Rear mount, I get around 42 miles on a tank. Titan with Friction drive, I get around 30 miles on a Tank. Titan with Chain drive and shift kit, I get around 48 miles per tank. That equates to 115mpg to around 165mpg depending on setup. All are fantastic mpg's. Enjoy the ride...
