I'm pretty steady in the 34 to 37mpg range... Most of my riding this summer has been limited to right around Town here; trips are always at the higher end of the range...

I short-shift mine... I like keeping the revs low and slow...

I'm a newbie with only 1300 miles on an RT-S, but I've gotten 36 on the last three tanks. Two were with HOGS and never went over 65 on either one, mix of good 4 lane state roads and 2 lane county roads, with typical Pickens, Bartow and Floyd County, (N.GA) hills and curves. Regular gas - try to use BP, but not always convenient. HOG guys, and I'm one, think BP is best. No,I don't want to get into that discussion again. Ride Safely. Tuck
