RE: what are you guys averaging?
I get around 140ish miles in before the light goes on (thought i was getting low gas mileage till i read this thread), and that's with me going to school that's 25 miles away, riding at 80-90 mph (only on the highway, and that's for about 20 miles straight), i only hit like 4 stop signs and 5 traffic lights total doing that ride. And gas in my area of Florida is about 3.85-3.95 a gallon for super premium.

My reserve light comes on at about 160. But that is only when I am not messing around. When riding spirited (as I like to call it), it's about 129. Gas in central NY is 3.97 per gallon for super (93) and that is what I run.
I have many mods... bmc filter, pc3, pipe, ignition advancer, velocity stacks, etc...
What also may affect mileage is tire pressure. When messing around I run lower pressures (30 psi), otherwise 34-35 normally.

Light? What light? (I've only had it come on once in the month that I've had it...got a habit of topping it off) Just kidding. 38 to 40 mpg. or 150-ish before the light comes on. Rode 460 milesduring the Memorial Day weekend. Premium fuel in NC ....$4.06/gallon.

I get about 100 to 115 in the City and 140 to 155 on the Highway depending how hard I feel like riding and I live in Canada where the gas is $5.40 a Gallon ha ha so you guys should be loving the $3.95 a Gallon. Just as a note
