David, look at my CBR250 motorcycle in my fuel log. Last summer I was getting 84 MPG. Now it is down to 73MPG, and I live in Virgina, which is a lot warmer average temperatures than Syracuse NY.

You will probably see a 15% increase in mileage this summer, even higher if you stick around and develop your techniques, with some fairly easy mods even higher.

Why give up or get discouraged? It's not a competition, it's money in your pocket. Things I had to learn to do, now come almost subconsciously. Heck even my 86 year old mother hypermiles her Cadillac Eldorado and gets 30 MPG on the highway.

regards
Mech
