I didn't count one because I over-filled, but over 20 of them and around 3500 miles, my average fuel economy is 70.45 miles per gallon (US). I figured I'd post in case someone who is researching the bike is wondering what the mileage is really like after normal use by normal people. Having said that, here is how I drive it:
Mostly interstate highway, I'd say 75%, at an average speed of 65 mph.
Driving around town is fairly conservative. In other words, approximately 90% of my shifting is done at recommended shift points, and acceleration is easy--usually slower than surrounding traffic.
I can count on one hand the number of times this bike has seen rpm's over 4000.
I'm very happy with the performance and economy of this bike. I really need to wash it, though; I haven't yet.
