RE: MPG for Heritage Classic

Brian,

I'm getting about the same mileage, but mine is a 97 with EV31 cams, Dynojet Stage 7 Thunderslide with Jet Kit, straight shots and breather. I think the dynojet kit is way to much. But, what do I know. This is my fist "real" bike. But, I due think my lack of mileage is a combonation of riding style and the bike running rich. The previous owner was claiming 175 to a tank before he hit reserve. I hit mine at 120 yesterday.

Mine runs well, but a dyno tune sure couldn't hurt. I'm sure there's one up your way. If not, the one in Nashville is supposed to be good.

Thanks guys. My dealership was closed today (Labor Day), but I will be checking to see if they have a dyno this week.

RE: MPG for Heritage Classic

I have 6000 on my 06 Heritage and get around 43 in town and between 47 - 50 on the highway. It was a lot worse until I got the 5K service done then it really jumped and the bike just purred! I'm thinking of get a PC III on the bike since I've heard the bike runs so much better even if every thing else is stock. No cash for pipes or a/c yet...
