[QUOTE="krakum1967, post: 127713, member: 3691"] Rode it Like I Stole It!!!! Did the economy test, 25 miles on a known fill spot, and my numbers show that it came out to average mileage being a nudge higher than 46 mpg, I ran 15 miles on the super slab and the rest was in town riding in the lower gears. Thats better mileage than I got on my CX500 Deluxe a few years back. And now that I am starting to trust the mount, the funner it becomes, its almost to that sweet spot tune where you know what the machine will do in circumstances where you need that power and ride. I have grown on this big ol b****. It runs in a healthy and responsive way that is unique to say the least. And the bike is quite comfortable on the freeway, I need the bikes to readily handle 80 miles per hour. On most days you travel that speed to stay ahead of the trucks, and other annoying forms of traffic congestion. Its fast, quick and nimble, and I still have work to do on it, can't wait to get more tuning done when the jets come in. [/QUOTE]
