gas mileage
RE: gas mileage
I'm getting somewhere between 35-40 on my '94 Ultra.. What did yours go to on your bike??
What are you running for EPM load, pipes, etc? The standard Harley, or different?
What are you getting for MPG after?
I know someone here will be able to answer.. I just know what questions they will ask..

RE: gas mileage
Not sure what you mean by EPM, but I'm running Vance & Hines pipes with a K&N air filter; otherwise the bike is a stock Harley with EFI. I'm now getting around 35MPG on average which sounds about what you're doing. Out of the box, I was averaging around 45MPG.

RE: gas mileage
Nothing is for free in this world. You added pipes, Stage I breather and now you are making a little more horsepower. That extra HP comes with a price...and that is lower gas mileage. I get about 36mpg on my 04 Ultra with Vance and Hines Oval Slip-On's, Stage I breather and Power Commander III usb. It runs great and a little less mileage is ok with me.
Good luck....

RE: gas mileage
On my 05 RK I get about 40 MPG. Usually fill up at 120 miles and it takes 3 gallons.
I have a stage I intake and SE II exhaust.

RE: gas mileage
I get about 40 to 43 on my 99 RKC with Stage II big bore, K&N, and Vance and Hines Classic Slip ons. I would have to agree with Mac, I don't twist very hard. Every once in a while though, I like to hear my pipes, so I have to pay...
