Default RE: What's your mpg?

according to how I ride usualy 45-50. I dont like to go over 135 miles without a gas stop.
I got 73 miles on a tank once, but I was riding 2 up some and doing a lot of full lock practice.
ORIGINAL: brgtr3

So, I've been diligently tracking my mileage over the last 3 months, during which I've traveled 4,334 miles. Trips have been amixed bag of city, open road, etc.

I averaged47.8 mpg over this period, with a per-tank high of 56.4mpg and a low of 37.1 mpg.

Not sure how I got the 56.4 number, but the 37.1 figure was on a road trip to South Dakota (during Sturgis week) when my speed was averaging 80 - 85 mph.

So, what are you all getting?

I consistently get 320 kilometres (roughly 198 miles) before I flip on the reserve. This is a combined city & highway mileage. A lot more highway than city. Highway speed is 120 kph (70 mph). If my math is correct that equates to 56 mpg. This is an '04 1200 custom with the stage 1 done.
