my 09 SG is averaging around 38 with my short commute to work...a little less if im riding hard...worst been 35. On my ride to and from the smokies from MO, we traveled 2 lane blacktop averaging 60 and under and the bike got 50-52 on several tanks. Bike is totally stock and now has a little over 3000 miles. My mileages are very similar to what my 2000 RK delivered.

I understand what you are going through
I traded in my '04 Ultra for a '09. My '04 had a Stage 1 kit, Samson Silver Bullet mufflers, K & N air filter, and synthetic oil, it got between 45-52 mpg solo or two up. I know have 2200 miles on my '09 and the best mileage I got was 42 mpg. I haven't done any performance upgrades on it yet. The '09 Ultra is a great bike with the exception of fuel economy, smooth and easy to handle.

Damn...I must be doing something wrong. I have an 08 Ultra, with a PCIII, monster ovals and a AN Big Sucker. I have about 1500miles on it so far....I average around 35mpg and my last 2 tanks were only 33mph. I do ALL freeway driving...mostly in 6th gear. I had a V-Rod that got better gas mileage than my Ultra....hope the mileage gets better with more break-in.
