Wow! You have done some interesting aero mods to that bike. Did you test/measure the effects of those mods? I'd be interested to know how they influenced your fuel economy.
I see you already geared the bike up a little bit. Gearing seemed to help a lot on my bike. Other than that, most of my improvements have come from riding technique.
Do you ride mostly in a tucked position or casual? I used to ride tucked all the time until i experienced some lower back pain and didn't feel it was beneficial to keep tucking. I was able to hit 101.5mpg while tucking for an entire tank of gas. My best without tucking is 95mpg or so. I haven't really tucked since because lower back pain isn't worth 6mpg (5%) to me.
