I just filled up the bike today, my longest tank for mileage, 233mi on 2.09gal. that comes to 111mpg and caps a great week for FE on my streamliner.

7/21 108.5mpg- official results for the vetter challenge
7/24 130.2mpg- riding home after my tow vehicle broke down
7/25 117.8mpg- last bit of the ride home, plus to/from work, and car shopping.
8/1 111.5mpg- to/from work, visiting with family, and more car shopping.

lots of miles, since I have no car at the moment. I even had to ride to work in the rain one day, and the only thing that got wet was my backside. it seems the rain hits my seatback and a little runs down to the seat.
