On my 2006 12000C, Stage 1, I got anywhere from 35-55 MPG depending on how I was riding. I calculate my mileage by dividing miles ridden by fuel used.

2017 883 SuperLow. SE air cleaner, crankcase vented out of the airbox, Cobra Power Pro RPT 2-1 exhaust, reflashed and auto tuned with an FP3, and I ride the bike more like a sport bike than a cruiser.

Running on summer blended fuel I see mid/upper 50's mpg, on winter blended fuel that drops to low/mid 50's mpg. All that on premium 91-93 octane pump gas, never have seen any benefit from, or worth the cost/time with finding ethanol free gas.
