MPG initial break in period.....

I am wondering what I can expect in terms of gas milage on my new S40.  It is in the initial break in period and has had no modifications.

On mine with stock exhaust, stock jets, and less than 1000 miles I got 48mpg. It got better as the motor loosened up. Now with the Jardine muffler,155 main and 55 pilot jets and 3000 miles she gets 50-55. It depends on how crazy I get with L-VIRA.

I got 50 & slightly better during break in for a couple reasons. I wasn't wringing it out because I was breaking it in according to the book. Also, since I hadn't been riding in about 25 years I wasn't comfortable riding hard. Oh yea, reason #3, the rear tire slipped around like it was covered in wet snot so riding like a moron wasn't happnin! Once, I got about 58 when I was just cruisin around.
