Removed the flies and decided to have the bike remapped for economy not power. Well the results are in save for me filling it up a few times and determining the change in the mpg. On the dyno at 35% load at 60mph it held 55mpg for over three minutes. The factory Average MPG from my experience is optimistic. I will see soon enough.

Be interesting to see real-world results with wind drag, hills, etc.

First tank since the remapping. Did 90mi yesterday with a buddy on his brand new Triumph Tiger 800, bike ain't broken in so it was a mellow pace. Then today a total hyper miler commute to and from. The result was 45.5mpg. Next tank full will be driving as I normally do.

The remapping.....tweaking the trim tables in the PC software or a reflash of the ecu?

That's basically what I get normally on my 08 without any modifications.

damn, best I've gotten when I've tried is 42.

I have an 08 with full Area P, flies removed PCV with Autotune and dyno'd at 161.3 and I get 52mpg at 65mph going to Idaho and back

Yup I did too. 

Jeez you guys are killing me. You can see my bike has full Area P, flies out, Power Commander.

Question! Are your averages taken from the meter on the dash of the bike or calculated? The average mpg on my bike is high.   

im going off my dash but if i do the math on my 2 longest fuel runs its right around 43-45ish

You did say it was remapped for economy...so let me get this straight...you've modded your bike for more power, spent gobs of money, and then spent more money in remapping it for economy?  To each his own.  I've spent nothing and get roughly the same gas mileage  ...   That's what's fun with this bike, you can do all kinds of things to it and then put it back the way it was...     More power to you, brother...pun intended.

And then.......there is ZG and the things that he does.

Well, we do encourage characters here Poke, of which you fit in as well.      I could also say we're all Bozos on this bus or just let's not crush that dwarf, hand me the pliars.

WTF??? Im averaging 35. On my 2013! About 50/50 city hwy. only romp on it if theres someone being stupid or if traffic is blocking me from getting to an exit. Run in eco mode all the time. 

Fully stock.

  You should get an 08/09...no limiter..better gas mileage, faster color....    We don't need no stinkin eco mode.

Are you running in "econo" mode?  I'm in the mid to high 40s on my '12.  I don't do any city riding.  Maybe a 5 traffic light town between stretches of state and county roads.

What evvvverrrr (channel your best annoyed teenager) ZG.

Lost a smidge over 2hp and almost no torque from last dyno session. With the flies gone the torque improved at lower revs which is exactly what I was hoping for. Let's review 162hp at the wheel vs 159.25hp translates into still more then I can figure out how to use most of the time and a bike that still runs out of talent way after I do.

Now the hypermiler in me is going to add to my records the indicated mpg vs the calculated. I will report the difference seen after a few tanks. You can also follow me on Fuelly. My bikes screen name is 'Konnie the BFH'.
