    milage doesnt matter how far down you take it....it matters how much fuel actually is consumed.

    i went 172 miles on 3.4gallons which equates to 172/3.4=50.5mpg

    I also run a really high gear ratio - 4krpm=70mph
    97 Katana 600

        I always sit on my Kat while fueling so she stands straight and tall, and takes all that she can to the bottom flange... The one time I ran her until Reserve, was about 170 mi.
