RE: ileage stinks.2007 Ultra Gas Mileage ?
I get 35-38 depending on how I ride, I have &H Dresser Duals, V&H Ovals, SE A/C and the V&H Fuel Pak. I also had the 903 reflash done. The mileage has been pretty constant since i bought the bike, I have about 3000 on it now. Beats the 14 I get in my F150...

totally stock 06 and I only get 36, and 38 on a good day of driving like an old fart. I'm thinking the only way to get better is to drag it on a trailer behind the Serria Denai pick-up (13 - 14 mpg) do some creativemath and calcualte some kinda BSaveragingto make the global warming crowd think morekindly of me.

My Ultra was produced January 11 as well. Have 260 miles on it. Riding the back roads - lot of stop and go for the breakin.
Average 38.5mpg...this will improve once I am on the highways.
No complaints...this is a luxury..not a necessity.
Best of all..NO problems!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Once 1000 mile service done then I will do the Ovals, Ness Big Sucker and SERT. Just waitin for the SERT. Fuel mileage is not a concern.

I was getting about 38-39 mpg with mine prior to putting it away for the winter.
I was disappointed, especially in that it ran so lean. My '03 RKC with a heavily modified engine, riding two up got 45mpg. I am thinking once I get this build done, and with proper tuning I will get back to that range.
Running lean doesn't necessarily mean good mileage if having to roll on the throttle more to accelerate and pass.

Well over 100/100 95" motor with a PC111 easily got 45mpg.
My stage 1 07 with a PC111 struggles to get low 40s but will if I take it easy.
Both motors dynoed by competent tuners. Has to be that the more powerful motor isn't working as hard.
I also agree thata too lean running motor can use more fuel than a properly
tuned one with a PC, SERT or other suitable tuner.
