ok so this summer i never really got a good long ride in so i dont have a take on the mileage per gallon. This coming summer i'm taking a good long trip, and i would love to map out my gas station stops. i have two good stretches where we do not see a town for at least 50 miles apart. does or has anyone know exactly how manny miles i can take to a gallon on a warm bike?

it would be nice to see where to fill up and plan. thanks guys.

Well, I can tell you one of my first rides I had no mods but I did have my baffles removed completely and had 1.4 miles to empty and I had ran 111 miles. I was running regular unleaded and I had been running 2 up, so I don't know if this will help you.

first off.. ooops. guess my subject line should have been mpg.

second, thanks Dan. i appreciate that.
thing is i have the cobra sweeps. no tuner yet. didnt know if that would affect the gallons per mile much. i'm sure it cant be that much off of your take danny.
Lol, no problem bud! I would imagine without the tuner it would be pretty comparable. Also, it was within the first maintenance so I know the oil is a bit different then. I would imagine all the variable would influence the mpg! hey, after your ride can you please post your results!? Just curious as to what they are!
