    Mpg: 26.7

    When I got the bike the P0 claimed he got over 50 mpg, I have never gotten close to that. In my most recent check, where I was careful to fill the tank to the same level, I recorded 26.7 mpg.

      Around 30 mpg on my 6 mile commute under 35mph to work. Right at 40mpg cruising at 60. I will admit I love the short throttle bursts this bike screams for. I have a very steep hill that I negotiate everyday that draws out the best of the sound and throttle response. Maybe that's why the commute mileage is low!!
      Great bikes. Simple and fast. I get compliments and questions everywhere I go.
