What kind of fuel mileage are you guys getting on your 1100"s? Just curious, (curiosity did not kill this Kat)LOL. Doesn't really matter but I plan on riding mine to work when I get it on the road.

If I take it easy, slow, steady take offs, shfting at 5000 rpm, no high speeds I get better mpg.
Plus I'm around 315lbs.
I should do ok on gas cause most of my travel is on the interstate. Nice and steady speeds(most of the time).

Got ya beat there, I get around 10.5 mpg in my F150
If I baby it I can squeeze out 12mpg but with a Magnaflow muffler it sounds to good just to baby it
I would say that unless you take the carbs apart there would be no way to tell which carb kit you have, but I'm probably wrong with that guess.
I'm going to guess you have a stage 3 kit.I don't know how fast my bike goes, I've never stopped to find out.

I'm running Yoshimura front pipe mated to a Muzzy cannister with a K&N air filter and a one stage Dyna Jet carb kit. I'm in the 32 - 35 mpg range. It mostly depends on how big the bug in my but is on any given day.
Big bug - 90+ on the highway, aggressive yet safe on surface streets
Not so big bug - 80 ish on the highway, semi-aggressive on surface streets always safe
Small bug - drivin' my Grand Cherokee on those days

Mileage?
My 92 Chev Suburban will fetch about 16mpg if i push it down a hill! HA!
Bike with a leaky tank: 35mpg!
Bike after repair: 33mpg!
Must've been way too happy with the repair, and may have overcompensated a few times while overtaking highway traffic (:
Hello All,
Just got mine in june with 40k, how about trading odometer readings for a bit - im told the larger inline 4's get huge K's before rebuilds.
