Default Mileage?

What kind of mileage are you guys getting on the '09 Ultra? I'm only doing about 38-39.

Yep, 40+/- on my '09 Ultra. I'm never hard on the throttling. Just like to cruise and enjoy. Notice it goes tadbit down with my lady in the back and our raingear/clothes in the tour pak/hardbags when we go on vacation. Not complaining here cuz it's alot better than driving my Tahoe, LOL.

'08 Street Glide here, I usually get around 43.
But then I don't do much city driving. It's 99% - 60 to 70 mph.

(with Stage 1, V&H True Duels and V&H Ovals)

I got the 38/39 area before the exhaust upgrade.

09 FLHT with stage 1 and 1200 miles on the bike. I average 38-42 on the highway, slightly less in town. I had one tank at 49.9 but that was at 70 on a long stretch of flat highway with no wind and the cruise on.
