Maybe that explains why I have yet to see 40 on the SEUC.  38 has been tops, so far.  Ripping it up on Saturday, it only dropped to 35, though, so that's good.  Same riding with the ol' SEEG only delivered 32.

You obviously are not riding economically. You had the extra gear on the SEEG also, didn't you?   har.  spyder

Not enough, 30 to 34 MPG depending on how I ride. I think I need a good
tune to fix the problem.

Funny, but, I get better mileage on my 113 evo than I ever got on the 103 SE OR the 110!

I put an app on my phone that I can collect MPG data back in July '12 with a total of 37 fill-ups I'm averaging 36.572, max 44.627, and minimum 29.363.

I did.  It made the long-distance rides a lot more comfortable and less fatiguing, but that 6-speed didn't do a thing for fuel mileage, even though it dropped the RPM by about 500. :nixweiss:

Nothing I do is economical. :2vrolijk_21:

Just got back from 5k mile roadtrip and averaged 47 mpg sat about 5-10mph over speed limit on the open road  usual fill was at between 250-275 miles and only once put in more than 5.5 gallons  ...was pretty proud of getting 6.03 gallons in the 6 gal tank and that wasnt all the way to to top either

I get between 38-40 with the SESG and 40-42 with SEURG...Don't know why the SEURG gets better gas mileage being heavier...maybe I drive the SESG faster?  :nixweiss: ::)

Same with my SEURG. A couple of times I've gotten 44 MPG.

I NEVER got over 40 MPG with my 2009 SEUC. IMHO 'the Shark' cuts through the air better than 'the Bat'.  ;)

Cruising 55-60mph, I got as high as 52.3mpg.  On the interstate cruising 75-80, she drops down in the low to mid 40's.
Fullsac Stage II, with a tune from C&S.

I was averaging around 42-43 but the engine was always pinging when I pulled a mountain. Zepka's tweaked my map by retarding the timing and richening it up. It runs a lot better at low rpm's now but I still have some pinging. I've lost power and about 4 mpg so I'm not happy yet. He's going to make some more adjustments and upload the revised map for me.

I'm using octane boost now and that helps a little but I know my problems are caused by the crappy fuel we're being forced to buy !

32 to 39.7 mpg US

S&S headpipe, Monster Rounds, a Super Tuner, and a dyno. But, it does seem to be climbing a tad as she loosens up....I'm thinkin' my right wrist is part of the problem though!
