50 MPG

Did a 200 plus mile ride yesterday across north Georgia and stayed out of the throttle as best I could. Got 50 MPG on my 06 RG with V/H true duels and K&amp\\;N air filter. Never went over 65.

I can't get my scoot to stay under 65 even in the driveway. I usually get around 35.

RE: 50 MPG

Acouple weeks ends back during our return from the Dragon maintaining speed around 70-80mph I got 50 mpg.&nbsp\\; Although whenever I shift into 6th gear sooner than 70 I&nbsp\\;get good mileages but not&nbsp\\; as good.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;Now I ride 5th until 70+ miles before shifting to 6th gear.

RE: 50 MPG

I can get 49 mpg if I stay between 65-70 mph with my DD6. My brother's 2007 Ultra Classic which is stock got the same mileage. Not too bad for a self tuned 98" setup making the below numbers.
