The great reserve/mileage/performance experiment continues...

Before heading out of Seattle I got gas. The trip meter read 175 miles. I got 3.8 gallons of gas. So that s 46 mpg. (I did make sure to take it off of reserve)

Riding home, I was running (depending on traffic) between 4000 and 4500 rpm (4500 rpm, 5th gear a little but more than in indicated 85 mph if I remember right) . Got home, the trip meter reads 178.5 miles and still havent switched to reserve.

I'll get gas in the morning and figure out my mileage. I have a feeling I'll have to switch to reserve on the way to the gas station.

I am thinking that (for my bike) the best mileage/performance running RPMs is 4500 RPM.
