He said "WELCOME" to everyone in this thread... there's a few of us here with less than 20 posts
Actually he said "all" and I got confused thinking that all of our thread counts started over.

My first tank at real low RPMs just putting around was 82mpg (!!), but now that I'm broken in, it's averaging about 60, and that's maybe 50% rocky/sandy/scramble and 50% on-road getting there. Overall, really good IMHO. Would like a bigger tank, though

Im about 215 lbs.....Driving mostly 58-74mph back and forth to work this week my new mpg is 63.4.....Also ran a thicker weight full synthetic oil then called for 15/50.....

Figured with the average temp of 80+ and the higher rpmz plus 250 miles from now it goes to the dealer for her 600 miles.....

This week back and forth to work I might take off the front fender and radiator cowls and see what I get without the drag factor...I bet 2-3 mpg....

Update...

Two top-offs and I've gotten 80 MPG almsot on the dot. BIke has about 360 miles on it. Again, 90% gravel/dirt/pavement and a few trips through the mud / offroad / around the yard in the trees, slippin' the clutch at 2 mph.

I'm not sure what you 09 guys are talking about with this MPG stuff.
I always check my 07 in SPM and I'm sure I am well over 100.
