Fully stock '08 Ultra Classic in upstate NY

About30-32 mpg (bad math in original post - that's what I get for trying to do it in my head). (I can't get 200 miles out of that 6 gallon tank to save my life, only about 180-185 miles. I used to get 210 -215 miles per 5 gallon tank on an '05 Road King Classic with Screamin' Eagle slip ons and a stage 1 kit)

my stock 07 road king was gettin about 38-40 mpg. Then I put on the fuel moto package deal with rush, K&N and PCIII, with mysecond fillup I'm at about 34 mpg. But I have been gettin on it more, nice sound and performance!! My commute is mixed (to work) 22 miles one way and about18 of them highway. I suspect that when I get to go on a good cruise, it'll get better.

I'm in NC about sea level btw.
