Out of curiosity, how do you know that? Is there a pump in your neighborhood that displays CND gallons or you calculate litres to gallons after the fillup :)

I've averaged 58.1 overall in the almost 2 years I've had mine.  My low was 42 from where it sat for 3+ months last winter and the high was 67 which was a long trip through the country while I was on vacation.

I used to keep it in a spreadsheet but I've seen a few people use fuelly, so I uploaded all my data there. :)   http://www.fuelly.com/driver/sjaskow/savage-ls650

I have no freaking idea how many mpg I get.

Post by Pabst 2006 on 06/22/09 at 15:36:23

50-52 avg when commuting, 60 avg when doing long trips (not using the superslab).

I use Fuelly as well, silly name IMHO but it provides a lot of information and analysis if you're curious.

AS high as 65 on the relatively flat 35, 40, 45  50 MPH road near Queen creek AZ where we spent some time last spring with the bagger. 40 -45 with the side car rig unless I try the freeway (60MPH) and then it drops under 40 with a passenger in the car.  Max

I ride almost 100 miles round trip to work, rural roads with some stop lights here n there. Alot of wide open throttle, with speeds around 60-70. Last time I rode her to work I was simply testing it out (new bike, its my girlfriends) to see what it would do.... so basically I rode it like I stole it. Actually did try to knee drag it chasing down a squid on a Gixxer :P
I went and filled her up @ 105 miles - 1.8 gallons - 58MPG.
When my GF rides it, it gets 65-75MPG because she doesn't ride like I do. Shes a beginner and all the backfires scare her :)

So far for my first three fill ups I have gotten between 58.5-60mpg and that's with hammering it to the speed limit and then easing off and cruising in either 4th (between 25-35) or 5th.

I usually get upwards of 60 mpg. I have a pretty free flowing harley exhaust, 150 main jet and tuned carb. on a recent 500 mile trip i got anywhere from 54-69 mpg depending on speeds, style, and gas type.

try to get gas without ethanol, you'll do better

Title: Re: TELL ME YOUR MPG
Post by Digger on 07/11/09 at 21:37:46

Just over 57 mpg, cumulative, for the past two years.

My Savage riding is strictly local with occasional spurts to about 55-60 mph indicated.
