Fuel Usage

My bike seems to be using ALOT of fuel. I mean...a tank for 30 minuites riding?

It has a bigger carby but doesn't explain the drastic ammount of fuel usage.

Any ideas?

Tank takes about 5 litres. I have a slight leak on the carby when the bike is tilted backwards...may be leaking alot more when the motors running?

it shouldnt be leaking even if the bike is titled, you might have too big fuel lines so too much fuel is maybe getting in ?

my blata rep used to burn between 1.5L and 2L in about 6 or 7 laps @ indy if i remember correctly
indy is 800m long
