What evvvverrrr (channel your best annoyed teenager) ZG.
You should get an 08/09...no limiter..better gas mileage, faster color.... We don't need no stinkin eco mode.+1
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.

No linked brakes.
I have a stock 08 and the best I have gotten is 43mpg but I don't ride a lot on the slab I prefer the back roads and twisties and usually am riding the bike between 3800-4500rpm. More often it is between 39-41mpgThe best economy doesn't occur on the slab unless you are laying on the tank because the drag is exponential with speed. Best economy occurs on the 55 mph state roads or 45 mph country roads.

And then the bad idea fairy hit me....
I know itd look beyond retarded, but im just curious how much side skirts to direct the wind around the saddlebags, and trunk would help. Just a small triangle attaching behind the knees, and to the canyon cages.
Not gunna do it cause itd look dumb, but still curious.
You would need to create a teardrop shape from front to back for the best aerodynamics. Kinda like a sperm going down the highway. LOL!
