Took delivery 12/11/10. I have 9500 miles on the best bike I have ever owned. It's been extremely wet here the last couple of years! Not great riding weather. Ride on

[North Georgia Hawg]

  Took delivery on March 26th, 2012.  Now have 3,200 miles on it but also ride my wife's Super Low once or twice a week...ride mainly to work with weekend excursions.  It's never had ethanol in the tank.  100% premium gas only and it runs great.  Lot's of 100% gas choices here in East Tennessee. 

Ethanol-free gas is darn near impossible to find here in the Greater Atlanta Area. We even have the special "Atlanta" blend of low-sulphur gas here.

Back in Sept 2008 after the hurricane knocked the Gulf refineries offline, we had our own little gas crisis here. It made me think of the Arab Oil Embargo back in the early 70s when I was but a pup... you couldn't gas anywhere here for several weeks, because they won't allow "normal" gas to be sold in the Atlanta area... only the special "Atlanta" blend.

We were coming back from BB&BBQ in Fayetteville, and got about 30 miles west of Atlanta on I-20 and needed gas. There was none anywhere... we had to turn around and ride almost all the way back to Alabama to find any gas at all, and ended up waiting in line for an hour to get it. I swear we bought the last 8 gallons that station HAD... it just trickled out of the pumps and took 3-4 minutes to fill each bike!

Took delivery on Dec. 19, 2010 and she now has 18,600 miles on her with original tires! (Looking at replacing rear next week)

[ScubaDM]

Now have 14K on the bike.

Non Ethanol 93 Octane Local Mom and Pop Grocery Store (Sparkle Mart): 47-51 MPG (Highway)  42-45 (City)

Fullsac 2.0 Baffles with Stock mufflers, Decatted Stock Head pipe, TTS map from Steve.

10% Ethanol 93 Octane (Usually Chevron):

37-39 MPG (Highway) 31-34 (City)

I am really fortunate to still have real Gas avalible locally and using Pure-gas.org I dial up locations wherever I am to find the pot of gold.  Sometimes a wild goose chase but sometimes the hunt is better than the kill and rolloing down the road the engine noticably smoother and will tolerate lower rpms where on ethanol blend runs noticable harder.  This may be a by product of Steve's map for the mods I have done but more info would be needed to determine how close this map is with fuel type, octane rating, temp, altitude, etc. from the dyno run.  I know with the system it is able to fine tune adjust on the fly but that map is pretty damn close to what I want out of and expect fuel mileage wise.

The only observation here is that I get a little rumble  and a pop coing down through 2K on the decel and I can live with that with the mileage i get overall.

Just a few thoughts....

Wow, that's pretty poor mileage on 10% ethanol gas like mine was when I first went stage 1. I now get 39-40 city on 10% in the city and I use chevron also I did however tune fullsacs map a bit. I used to get decel pop and low RPM problems as well with fullsac map but I tuned all that out by tweaking the AFR table and changing the decel enleanment table, well not ALL of it but for certain most of it. I was not getting great mileage before I tweaked it but it jumped 3-4 MPG after and I lost no power. Most of what I changed was zero throttle position AFR made it a little less lean and the the decel enleanment table a bit less lean as well. I did  lean up the very low RPM range after zero throttle position it was .900 I brought it up to 977-984 depending on the KPA cell. It runs a lot better at low RPMs and the decel pop is all but gone till it gets really hot then it pops every now and then not often though. Biggest difference is mileage it jumped at least 3-4mpg more if I stay out of the throttle but since I did not tweak anything above 1750 or so RPM I doubt staying out of the throttle would help me anymore after I tweaked than before I tweaked. It still isn't perfect and I'm going to let a local guy I know dyno it soon. But it's a lot better than before.

Oh... Got my 2012SESG In April I have 3300 miles on it at the moment.

Was just talking to Mano on another thread and I was shocked to know that he has 40000 km on his FLHXSE2. I thought I'd ask you all how long have you had your SESG and what mileage do you have on them.

I have my FLHXSE2 since 16 months and have 9300 miles approximately.

Here ya go buddy. I took this while i was riding.

Not bad considering we cannot ride year round over here. I also take the cage to work. This is strictly pleasure. I will be going to Stirgis in August and coming back threw the Canadian provinces. I should have close to 60 000KM by the end of the year.

[Mano]

Year is not done yet.

[sharper85]

2009 Altra CVO 81k. I love to ride. Bike is still running strong.

[Vyscera]

I think my mileage was 21,737 when I got to work this morning. I'm happy with getting that in 13 months.

[2Manytoys]

Took delivery 11/29/2011. Got 11,789 on the clock.

Picked my krypto up feb 25 2011. Just looked at in the basement 3441 miles. 

[BluBike]

It's been a good year for me with 3 big road trips and several small ones, can't wait until next year...I'm at 68,280 and I had 37,500 in October 2011.

[Mano]

Year is done.

With 16 cm of snow and all that salt on the roads....ish. Went into the garage after i cleaned the snow. Battery tender is on, topped up tank, added Seafoam and cover is on.

Mano, what is seafoam? Thanks

[Fired00d]

Mano, what is seafoam? Thanks

Google is a wonderful thing - Seafoam.
