If a LEO saw how I ride I'm sure he would say my license should be taken away, but I make a point so they hardly ever see me being a hooligan, and if they do, they need to catch me. Vmax>crown vic haha
I've found with my gen 1 I get best mileage, no kidding, cruising at about 95mph. For me with Venture gears, that's just before the boost valves open in fifth. Last year did a ride from Schroon Lake, to Troy, to Hampton Beach, (and back...~560mis in a day), the trip out had an average speed of probably over 100, lots of time "cruising" in the 90 zone. Filled up once between Troy and the coast, and rolled into the beach showing 125miles to the tank and still no fuel light, I thought sure it broke. Finally at 132 it came on, and when I filled up I got 41.5mpg. I **** you not. Average 75mph cruise I get 37-38. Push it past 100 into v-boost territory and it takes a dump. I found out the hard way. The fuel light came on right as I got on I87-S at exit 30. Of course there's never any traffic that far north so the speedo quickly passed the century and rode between 100-140+(top end) until she ran dry about a mile shy of exit 26. When you run out of gas at 130mph, the bike will coast for nearly a mile with the clutch pulled in, lol. Later figured it to be about 18mpg. Bike does better on gas at WOT than my truck does driving like grandma. I was having too much fun speeding and of course immediately forgot about the fuel light, figuring I'd make it to 28 no problem. Of course I forgot about that too and went by the exit at 140mph. There is no exit 27 on the southbound side, and I didn't make it to 26.
