I just got my bike earlier this week and went through the first full tank in a single day. I calculated my mileage and it was 38mph. Keep in my mind this was my first real day with the bike so I wasnt even abusing it or riding it really hard. I read some reviews on the bike and the writers claimed to get 38mpg out of theirs on a track.

So i'm just curious, what kind of mileage do you guys get when you just kind of take it easy, and what are some things I can do to improve my mileage?

As you break the bike in you will get better gas mileage. Some mods will make it worse.

Well the bike isnt new it is already broken in. It has 6500 miles on it...

Only mods it has on it is a Devil pipe, which I would think might help.

And I wasnt in a lot of traffic at all I was actually on the interstate for like 35 miles.
