all my riding was around town, and i weight 140-150lbs on average. might be why i got better millage i guess.

I used to think I got much better mileage than I actually do. I'd say that I average around 65mpg; I used to think it was closer to 75. Of course, my GZ seems to go a little faster than most report (I take highways to work at around 70-75mph every day, unless it's cold out). I remember breaking 80mph one time, but it was on a wide-open highway with a little tail wind.
