Do you consume a lot of fuel in your motorcycle tank? Or the fuel consumption of your motorcycle just increased that much. Maybe you may have some problems in the carburetor or fuel system. This are some cases that can cause your poor fuel economy.
First to check is the adjustment of all your jets, needles and screw if they are adjusted in the right way. Engine may consume a lot of fuel if your idle adjustment is very high. Air jets and needle jet should also be checked if there are worn out or damaged parts or any clogged passages. Even the piston vacuum also may cause this problem if malfunctioned, or the whole piston assembly malfunction. Any leak in your carburetor will waste a lot of fuel, remember to check for any leaks in the carburetor, check if the drain plugged is close tightly. Also check for the hose if there are damaged or worn parts. The riding style may also cause high fuel consumption. Unnecessary revs in your engine and high speed riding is not good for your fuel economy.
To fix this problems I recommend you to clean the carburetor. For the adjustment of the screws, fuel levels and jets, if you don't have any knowledge about this you can bring this carburetor to mechanics that is expert in adjustment and troubleshooting. You should replace all worn and damaged parts if there are required to be replace. I don't recommend to repair the damaged parts but there is available repair kit that mechanics use to repair the carburetor system. Be gentle in riding on your motorcycle to improve the fuel economy and avoid unnecessary revs.
