Default gas mileage

My cuzin and i went on a ride last weekend and it seems that my bike got a better gas mileage! I ride and f4i and he rides a 600rr! We both were getting on our bikes at certain times so it would seem as tho it would be pretty even! We both filled up before we left San Fran and it was able to go down to gilory and halfway back!? My cuzin had to fill up again before we even started headed back! I think trip was aprox 150mi trip

I got 147 miles before the first of the reserve bars started this week. I believe the F4i is better on gas than the RR..

I went on a few hundred mile trip to the coast, and I got nearly the exact same as Frydaddy. 145 miles then the reserve lights came on.

I've averaged about 48mpg my last two tanks. Most of that is backroad highway cruisin' at about 70-80mph. Much better than the 19 my RX7 gets...or the 21 or so the wife's Xterra gets. Overall i spend about $10/wk on gas if i commute on the bike and closer to $40 if i use my car. Ridiculous.
