The loaner bike I have now is a complete turd. I've checked the mpg by hand and it gets 22mpg. It's a turd,runs hot,no power whatsoever. I could tell this before I even checked the mpg,you should be able to ride your bike and tell if it's no quite right.

First to help you answer your Question--... is your bike stock,, or what mods have been done to it... IE-- pipes, A/C, Cams, and most important -- what tuner and how was/is it tuned.....??
I've read in here many times that people who have the older Fuel Pac installed lose MPG and end up getting in the 20 something mileage....
Or maybe your neighborhood Kid is getting his gas from your bike to support his mowing business.....

Do you smell gas as you are riding down the road?
Did you do anything to the bike before the mileage went down?

I'll check the plugsIt's an EFI
Sometimes I smell gas while riding
I didn't do anything to it before the problem started
Sometimes I ride it hard but not consistently enough to cause this problem

My guess is that you have a small leak somewhere.
