Alright so I searched to see if this topic existed, but found nothing. So with that said.. what kind of MPG are you guys getting with these bikes? What's your range too?

I usually hit reserve somewhere between 125 and 150. I have a K&N and a Two Brothers pipe too. Not sure if its jetted but I would guess it is, all that stuff came on it when I bought it. Haven't calculated gas mileage since last riding season so I really don't remember, but I do remember the range.

I go about 120-140 miles before fill up. So I get around 40-45mpg.

I'm on reserve at 110 miles, and it's like clockwork. No matter the riding style or city VS highway. Although I'm running a F3 petcock and it's got a 520 chain and sprockets so I'm guessing it's a -1/+3 set (or somthing like that). She has a V&H slip-on and I have no idea what jetting might have been done (it's a relatively new aquisition). She runs WAY too good to screw with it now but I will be putting a 530 and stock steel sprockets back on it as soon as the parts arrive. I'm hoping to see that 150 mile mark before having to switch to reserve.

4.3 gal tank. I'll go about 150-160 miles and fill up. I don't like to go on reserve too much. I depends heavily on how "nice" you are to it.

Mines a little over 3 gallons and I'm only seeing slightly over 30 MPG. I start to run out of gas at the 110 mile mark. I have a Vance and Hines slip on, a UNI filter, and possibly a jet kit. This is still not right though...I need to find out why the mileage sucks!

Fuel capacity for the F2's is 4.2 gallons which includes a .9 gallon reserve.
Last weekend I rode my F2 from Northern California to Southern California, about 523 miles one way down I-5. My speed was with the flow of traffic, usually 85-90 mph, and jaunts up yo 115 mph. I had saddle bags, a tank bag, and a back pack and me, so maybe 300 ponds on the bike.
I got between 47 and 51 miles per gallon excpet when I crossed the tehachapi's and faced a nasty head wind and elevations of 2800 feet, then I got a measly 33 mpg.
For the most part, I commute on this bike and get 50 mpg or more with a yoshi slip on and a jet kit, using 87 octane fueland running the stock Honda Air Filter after tossing the junk UNI filter that I bought last year. I have 44,000+ miles on my bike.
