Sounds low to me.&nbsp\\; I fill up every 100 miles and usually only fit two gallons in the tank.

RE: Milage?

I would think you should get 40+ depending on how you ride.

RE: Milage?

I got around 40 stock and with cams, air, exhaust, tuner I still get 40.
Even on back roads that are marked 35-50mph I do 70+.
The highway I do 90 so it might just be my right wrist that keeps me from doing better

For all law enforcement I am foolin!

I get 40 with mixed driving on my 2005 Fat Boy with the 103 engine.
