Last Saturday the bride and I went for a ride,   ended up about 350 miles, visiting a few places outside of Houston.   Weather was sunny and 92 degrees.   warm yes,   but thankful for twin cooling,   on my heritage it would have been HOTTT.   
I hand calc'd my fuel mileage and got 41.mpg.  with 900 miles on clock.      anyone else seeing the same or better..   bone stock,  no mods,  I had no complaints out of my seat felt good all day...

I have a 13 CVO Ultra and prior to the tuner and decatting the bike I was getting around 48 just tooling around and around 38 blasting down the superslab

after the upgrades though I now get around 40 just tooling around and about 32 blasting down the superslab all day.

My bike is also bone stock and I consistantly get 40 to 41 mpg as well.

And just think, with the speedometer being 6% off, at 41mpg your actually getting 38.5mpg. Just saying.

Okay good point.    Let me ask this of the group.   The speedo. what gps / nav displays.  Mine is exactly same.  So is the gps off 6% too.   I have not compared to GPS or phone app for speedo

on mime if i set the cruse at 90 to 95 mph i get 31 to 32 mpg, and if its set at 70 to 75 mph i get 36 to 38 mpg.

I have an app on my iphone for mph. Compared it with my 2014 camaro and GMC acadia and is right on. Took my phone and placed it in the compartment next to the stereo. At 75 on the speedo my phone was reading 70 mph. After I installed the TTS tuner I was able to adjust the setting for the speedo on the bike and now it reads correctly.

Does the 2014 have a speedo on the nav from the stereo? I haven't found that on mine yet.

Before I hit 1k miles I was around 37 mpg on average. Now I get between 38-41 on average. I did hit 43-45 on the BRP though.

When running the nav.  I have speed on display lower right corner.   Tells mph.  I compare that to actual speedo.

Found it. I'll see what it says on my ride home from the FS.

Mine is right on when I compare the speedometer with the GPS speed. Stock I was getting around 36 mph. With exhaust mods and a tune I'm now around 42 unless I stomp on it...

All I know is when the little yellow light comes on I stop for gas...

There is another thread around here concerning the speed displayed on the NAV screen being generated by the bike's speed sensor (the same one that supplies speed data to your speedometer), not satellite data as is the case with other GPS units.  It appears you can't use the 2014 Infotainment/Nav screen display to verify actual speed.  Try using a standalone GPS temporarily attached to the bike to check for actual speed calculated from satellite data.
