yes I did use gps. I do have a baseline but I ignored it because its hard to get same variables as wind down/up-hill grade, pavement type, tire pressure and other factors. I havent made a new chart for cruising mpg yet though to compare against baseline. still I dont see how that matters if my mileage for past 2000km has been very very close to before. I even tried a lot of pulse and glides on this tank to no avail. I almost completely avoid engine loads below 60% now with pulse and glide as there is no more cruising. but exactly thr same mileage (pulls hair out).

one thing I noticed is now it takes longer to pulse due to lower rpm. I spend most of my time below 2000rpm now.
