RE: 2007 Ultra Classic MPG?
2007 Ultra 16,000+ miles on it,SE mufflers,dealer installed the Parade Map at 800 miles due to it was surging badly,then at 12,000 miles I had the 2007 recall map installed. So at this point it is basicly stock and gets 43 to 47 MPG steady!
I ride the NC. mountains mostly but I do also
ride the GA.TN.VA.SC.WV. mountains
to the tune of 70,000+ miles in 2006. I put
15,000 on the new Ultra in 3 months! So the
Ultra is well used and broke in! LOL"

I get around 40 mpg. I have SE slips and SE AC with recall stage 1 flash. 99% of my riding is two up.
Bike has 5000 miles on it now. As you can see, I'm a little fellow......

I have 125.4 miles on the clock. I hadmy firstfill up because the gas light illuminated. I haven't been able to measure gas mileage. After reading other posts I can assume that the mileage will get better as the motor is broken in.

Not to be a wise guy...IMO I wouldn't care if it got 20 mpg!!! It's about the ride. Sorry Ultra07, I just couldn't help myself.

You say that but I had a sport bike that was a gas guzzler (VTR1000) it would get mid 20's up to low low 30's and it sucked. My car got more MPG! It was expensive to ride and I was constantly having to stop for gas. [:@]
Not to be captain obvious but I think the biggest factor to gas mileage is linked directly to the throttle and then a bunch of smaller factors, weight, wind conditions, engine build, tempature, winshield, up hill, down hill, flat, stop and go traffic, highway, 55 mph, 90 mph, etc. etc. etc. etc.
For me, the biggest factor for MPG is who I am riding with. If I'm riding alone on back roads just relaxing = great MPG. If I'm riding with a few of my buddies that ride very aggressively it goes way way down.

Well first of all I didn't pay $23,000.00 for my Ultra. Second, I do watch my gas mileage because I purchased a Touring bike. I plan on taking long trips and look for that gas mileage.
