Let's see, a liter is a little larger than a quart, four quarts to one gallon, 20 divided by 4 equals 5. I think somebody's math needs to be redone. :bat:

5.283441047163 gallons = 20 liters, according to the web. Why is there so many different answers? is it because north is imperial gallons?

Canada went to the metric system in 1977 making things simple to figure out L.O.L.

Our Gal. is 4.54 litres the US gal is 3.8 litres, regardless So if you fuel your bike up in Canada it will have 20 litres or 4.4 gals in the tank. Same bike filled up in the US, 20 litres but now it has 5.26 gals.
Remember that the US Gal is .75 of a litre smaller. Now if you really want some fun figure out fuel millage ( MPG) while traveling in the US & Can at the same time You will see a significant fuel millage increase or decrease dependent to the direction your going. Most of the Vehicles in Canada have a fuel consumption meter which will say for example 6.9 litres fuel used per 100 kilometres driven or 13.8 litres per 100 kilometres to convert these examples to Canadian MPG.

100 div by 6.9 = 14.493 x 2.821628 = 40.89 MPG (Can)
100 div by 13.8 = 7.246 x 2.821628 = 20.45 MPG (Can)


NOTE: NUMBERS HAVE BE ROUNDED UP OR DOWN!!!!!!!!!
