Weird thing about Buells is that the harder you beat on them the better the mileage is.
I did a run last year where we ran 170 miles hard (Skyway, Deals, other roads) banging off the rev limiter most of the way. Got 180+ miles before the reserve light even came on. Regularly get 50mpg and I got the "race kit". |

Congrats drewp, maybe it just needed 20K for break in.
![]() I've seen 45 or better a few times on the instant economy meter. yeah... best I've done by my numbers on a tank was 34. the "average" is up to 32 since my track day... got 25 for the day on the track. |

I get 40 out of the gixxer, but I run it hard a lot of the time.

I get 45-50 out of the R1. I don't run super hard though.
