They will all perform equaly with your set up.
^^Good advice. The VH power duals while they get a lot of press they are a hazard in terms of ground clearance.

Folks don't realize that aerodynamics plays a big part in mileage as well. Tall windshields, lower fairings, tourpacks and so forth will drop mileage.
