#494402 greyphart (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 5790 Gas mileage blows 12 Months ago   Gone through almost 2 tanks of gas and only gone 250 miles on my 07'. Everything still intact (AIS, stock pipes, factory carb settings, etc). Getting real close to "making it my own" and the warranty be damned. Using Seafoam versus their "product".

Fresh Boarder Posts: 25 Re:Gas mileage blows 12 Months ago   Dude if I were you I'd take the bike back to the dealer and have them fix the problem, it's not just something you have done... Just for the sake of argument how long have you had the bike?   Logged     In Alaska We Ride Till The Sun Goes down, (OH MY BAD!)

Platinum Boarder Posts: 6897 Re:Gas mileage blows 12 Months ago   When mine was all stock I averaged around 37mpg. Your not getting that. After my ais removal, pipes, open breather, and rejet I average 43-44 mixed driving. Is yours a 'new' 07? ...only 250 miles total? There is a break in period where it will get a little better but if your only getting 125 miles or so a tank (25-30 mpg)...something isnt right.   Logged     ...Scott   The administrator has disabled public write access. #494440 MikelJay (User) Living in the land of confusion.... Gold Boarder Posts: 938 Re:Gas mileage blows 12 Months ago   My bone stock `06 Silverado gets 44mpg, averages 180 miles or so before I hit reserve. Sounds like something is out of adjustment......   Logged     Mike `06 Roadstar Silverado Lenoir City, Tn Patriot Guard   The administrator has disabled public write access. #494441 nightstar57 (User) ride it like ya paid for it .. Platinum Boarder Posts: 3336 Re:Gas mileage blows 12 Months ago   dump the ais and rework the carb with a quality carb kit like barons or cobra.. you should be getting at least 40mpg.. i get 47mpg with my 07 and the 05..   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #494461 greyphart (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 5790 Re:Gas mileage blows 12 Months ago   Figuring the AIS has a bit to do with it. Going to look at it this weekend and figure a plan of attack and go from there. Also gonna call the dealer and do that dance ONE time. Then it's my turn.

This individual told Erbman, that as many as 4 out of 5 Roadies, had manifold leaks right out of the crate.....that'd sure make for some crappy mileage. You could check that, without voiding the warranty, and if it shows a leak, the dealer could fix it on his dime.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #494466 mkayx (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1436 Re:Gas mileage blows 12 Months ago   air leak at the manifold   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
