I'm running the SE Air Kit, V&H True Duals/Oval Slip-Ons and the SERT with the 141MP002-A0.MT6 calibration file, got about 8000 miles on the bike.

Pulled down 42mpg a few fill-ups ago, wheelies, burnouts and several WFO launches to 120+mph on that tank, first real tank with the SERT setup.

Well I rode 191 miles today to the Outer banks of N.C. and back. 8-)
The gas mileage was up to 34.2 on this trip. [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]
(no cruise control used but kept it under 4,000 rpm)

My first few tanks had me at 35 MPG and I was concerned.  By the time I had around 1000 miles on the bike I was getting 37 MPG.  I'm at 4600 miles now and my last tank was over 41 MPG.  These numbers are with the stock filter and exhaust set up.

Two up, I'm consistantly getting between 35 and 40 MPG, depending on load and terrain.

My haze is running the SE Stage I and V&H slip-ons. Has about 3500 miles on it now and usually will average between 35 and 37 mpg. Mileage always drops off by at least 2 if I run cruise control. [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]
