How can you address that? That's where I'd be focusing my attention. I suspect if you had regular feedback, that alone would influence your riding style.

As it is, you're stuck going tank by tank.
How about a fluid flow sensor out of the tank and a speed sensor on a wheel. Hooked up to an Arduino with fancy calculations to calculate mpg. I say it's doable if you can find such a sensor.
