I was going to mention the Gold Wing.. but my 1100 and I guess most all of them don't return very good fe, usually in the 30's and I don't think I've seen anyone claim any better than 40. In fact I'm deciding if my bike would run better and more economically if I ditch the 4-carb setup and put a single automotive carb on there...
I also have a GL500, which has the same drivetrain as the CX500. It got 45-55 mpg, driven gently and slowly. I'm not real impressed with that and always felt it should be better.
