How many miles is everyone getting on avg. with a tank of gas? I realize it depends on how you use the throttle, but I'm just curious how many MPG you are getting or how many miles per tankful is average?

Thanks!
 
I fill up before the gas meter starts blinking and usually have 120ish in that last bar when I fill up, mind you I do have a ways to go, I just don't like seeing my gas that low lol
 
140/146 to flashing low fuel indicator , about 50mpg , with mods no PCV .
My cellphone does GPS , stored in my Joe Rocket tank bag bluetoothed to my Scala headset , turn by turn nav , got to love it . "Use the Force Luke ." :-)

On average with the higher speed freeway travel I do, I get around 160 miles per tank before fuel light comes up. However, I did chill out with the throttle while riding in a group and got 200 miles until the light came up. So it really depends on how excited you are with the throttle.
 
Wife and I took a nice ride yesterday , filled up and took off , rode 115 miles , went back to same pump same gas station , 2.1 gallons used , do the math .=115/2.1=54.761904 .
Pretty good , was wanting to drop a tooth on the front sprocket (yea I know most go up a tooth not down) , maybe later on I will , not after lower cruising RPM .
