A valid point, but look at it this way. I can get anything from 200km to 400km out of a tank. Even riding the same, if I manage to get a good run with the the lights on the way to work for a week, I can get an extra 50 km out of a tank. It's not the sitting or even the stop start per se, it's the way I start. I love the acceleration, not so much the speed, so I tend to give it to her at take off, pretty much every time. Same story with tyre wear. So the only way to compare is to know exactly how you ride compared to someone else. Also, size does matter (I weigh around 80 kg). If your bike starts easily, runs well, isn't blowing black smoke and your plugs look healthy, then it most likely is doing fine. Just enjoy it.
