My stock bike averaged around 39-40 mpg and now after changing cams, air breather, fuel manager and adding slip-ons I am now averaging 38. With the new upgrades I am now finding myself riding harder than I used to.

I have a stock 2012 RKC running non-Ethonol. I'm getting 46 mpg. That is running 2 lane back roads and about 60 mph.
