Just past 1K on today's ride. I scheduled the 1K service on Friday for Tuesday at 1 pm. I should be at 1,200 by then.

No issues have come up. It just keeps running better. But sounds terrible. Please someone come up with a good slip on.

I haven't got a 55 mpg tank since the second fill up when I was running it easy. However all have been right on 50 mpg and that has been at 70 on interstate running.

I did a roll on from 60 in 6th and backed off at 90. It was not as strong as I had expected but was still climbing at 90. Should do better with a few more thousand on it.

Cool, I'm just over 300 on my 750, Just put the Vance and Hines Comp series muffler on mine yesterday. World of difference, sounds like a Harley now. I put the K&N filter on it before I go in for the 1k service and have them do the tune at the same time. So far I'm right at 55 mpg.
