Bad gas mileage!!

Bad gas mileage!!
Hi I am new to the forum but thought I would throw this out there and see if anybody had any advice. I have an 03 CBR600RR and it is pretty much brand new with only 2000 miles on it. Right now i am only getting about 30 miles to the gallon which seems pretty low to me. I have had a PC3 installed with a custom map and K&N air filter. I was just wondering if anybody else has had this problem and maybe knew how to fix it. I have asked the shop where i usually get my work done and they dont seem to know. I would appreciate any help anybody can give me. Thanks.

RE: Bad gas mileage!!
uhhh... look at the specifications on the bike... do you have the users manual...?? because im pretty sure that your 30 mpg is a pretty average number. These engines are HIGHLY tuned and LOVE the gas... I'm pretty sure your number is normal... ill post in just a second w/ a website you can look at

RE: Bad gas mileage!!
What is your driving style like? Also, what emissions do you have installed on the bike? Have you checked the air filter and spark plugs ? Are you running rich/lean ? Is your O2 sensor clogged or riddled with carbon deposits ? How about your air flow sensor, runnning properly ? Throttle position sensor ? Idle settings? Does your exhaust smell any different than a normal bike?
All these together or by themselves can cause poorer gas mileage. Based on the fact that you are still getting 30mpg I would say it is something subtle like the items mentioned above. Lets get some input....
