Yeah, I'm in that 30-38 range depending on what type of riding I'm doing.

Around town lightly getting on it now and then I got around 42 - 45mpgs. On the highway I got 48-50mpgs. (Its gone down now that I threw on the sprocket. Its around 36 - 42mpgs around town now and haven't tested out highway yet but should be around 43 - 46mpgs (Numbers before a speedo-healo installed)).

I'm riding mine easy as it was just purchased brand new on Monday, so I'm doing the vary speed, vary rpm's, and conservative rpm's thing, and I got an even 40 mpg when I filled it up yesterday.

I thought that was pretty impressive milage right out of the box

Quick question guys.. I realized that my MPG is much higher then most who have posted. ... I did come to one conclusion: My modified bike MPG is wrong for the fact that I'm really not"really"getting the 161miles to the tank like it reads due to the sprocket change. So I will repost once I have a speedo-healo installed.

The question is why did I see such high MPG stock? On the highway I usually average around 70mph and got 175 - 190 miles on 3.6 - 3.8gallons fills.

Around town I saw a lot of 160s miles and 3.6 - 3.9 gallon fills. Am I just riding like a pansy ..lol ?

refer to previous post for mpg

Naw. The 07's tend to get better milage that the earlier bikes. That was also documented in the magazine ride tests.
