  phantom has lesser fuel consumption. SP & KR r sportsbikes, got more raw power so naturally consumes more fuel

  So ur ultimate aim is how u look on the bike or how u going to maintain the bike
  
  If u are going for relative mainteance in terms of petrol and 2T (not inclusive of time-to-time oil change, spark plug, tyres,etc,etc). Then the Phantom 4-stroke is the choice.
  
  If ur mind is already make up on sport bike and how cool u are going to look on them then forget about Phantom and ignore what u read here because u have already made up ur mind when u post here liao.

  My phantom runs 34 on any fuel..
  it`s considered lousy..
  
  heard others got 38-42 per litre
  
  but i ride w 3 boxes, carry a pillion almost everytime and stop every 400-500 m due to the stupid traffic lights

  2 stroke drink more petrol, 4 stroke more economic.
  go for 4stroke bike if you getting transport bike.

  Phantom 200 full tank range 300+ km.
  10 - 11 litres = $9 - $11 depending on grade of petrol you use.
  Low maintenance bike.

  My Honda XR 125 goes 320 km before hit reserve.
  Thats means it goes 40km per litre. If I go 90km/h all the way then its 36km per litre.
  4 stroke and air-cooled...no need to top up anything.
  A very good urban scrambler
