#75801 silver_fox (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 229 What's an average MPG??? 9 Months ago   Is there an average MPG for the R* for me to see if I'm in the ballpark with my bike? I know alot has to do with mods, i.e. air filter, pipes, windshield, driving habits etc... I got 41 MPG on a ride this past weekend. I'm happy with that if that is "normal", but if I can get more, I'll try to get it. Here's what I've got... '03 1600,cobra pipes,K&N air, windshield, saddlebags, engine guards(BIG Yami),Passing lights. I'm figuring that all the add-ons lower the mileage somewhat. As for the carb. All I know is that the main is a 165, PMS 2½ out. What is everybody else getting???   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #75803 javawave (User) Over 16801 good days in a row and counting Platinum Boarder Posts: 3505 Re:What's an average MPG??? 9 Months ago   on the highway I'm in the 43 / 44 mpg range.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #75808 easyrider003 (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 106 Re:What's an average MPG??? 9 Months ago   I had the all the silverado accessories on my bike and riding 2 up gas was about 42/43mpg. Removed all those silverado items and crashbar and riding 2 up now is 52 mpg.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #75819 cass (User) If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
