Just by looking at your HP/TQ #'s and not knowing what cams, it would seem to me that they are mild cams, no?
Just guessing, but, I would say your MPG is low.....using what we get around here......but.......
there MAY be circumstances that would justify the 32 MPG......like high load/high speed, etc, etc.

I ride pretty hard,am a big guy and the bike is probably 25 pounds heavier with accessories. The cams are not wild but far from mild. The most radical I could get without going to headwork and increasing compression ratio. A stok 110 only puts out about 88HP and 95 fT LB TORQUE AND THAT IS AT THE CRANK. mY NUMBERS WERE MEASURED AT THE REAR WHEEL.

I put close to 900 miles on the 09 SEUC this weekend two-up and averaged around 40 mpg.
A quick 184 mile trip home this morning at 75 mph plus netted 37 mpg.
Bike has 36,883 miles.

Stock 110 is approximately 95 ft-lb and 80 hp, measured at the rear wheel, not the crank.

I'd suggest that a properly tuned 110, ridden at legal speeds on the highway, should do no worse than 40 mpg.  Many have reported mid to upper 40's.

What is your AFR set at for steady cruise?

I rode to the NC Rally at New Bern in May with the HOG Club.
Damn, they ride slow.
I was getting 46 to 49 mpg.
When I would fill up, the fuel gauge would show 290 miles to empty.
Riding like that is no fun for me, no matter how good the mileage is.

Just finished 5600 miles two up along PCH 1, to seattle back down into the desert and home to Texas.

40.6 MPG.

Seems very low.

Sounds like the bike definitely isn't tuned properly. I have a "worked" 2010 SE Ultra including headwork, larger injectors, 58mm throttlebody, roller rockers and a hi-lift cam (.650 Woods 408-6cam), D&D Fatcat. My range is 250-270 miles or between 42-45mpg. I weigh 265 lbs and there's no way you can ride harder than I do. Just finished off my first rear tire in 8k miles and about to break 10,000 miles in total. If you're getting less than 40mpg, somethings not right.

My 2010 SEUC made 77/100 out of the box. After the engine work and tuning at the dealer it was 111/115 and now it's even higher performance after further smart tuning. My guess is close to 120/120. About to get it re-dynoed during the 10K service.

Sounds like you need a new shop to do the tuning.

Isn't the AFR goal to be constant 13.1 ?  Anyway, mine is still stock -- 5,100 miles averaging 37 2-up @ 75 mph, higher when I'm alone or not going as fast.

did a Autobahn-ride last week, solo, no luggage, topspeed 110 plus: 32,7 mpg.

On our Greece-trip (5.500 m, many mountain roads, two up with luggage, topspeed rarely over 75 mph, mostly between 30 - 50 mph) I averaged 41,27 mpg.

110 '09, no cat, high-comp. pistons, headwork, SE 260 cams, 58" throttlebody, larger injectors, SE-AC, Kess-pipes, SEPST.
