He's doing very good at 75mpg if that is really what he is getting. My '06 Burgman 400 gets right about 64mpg at 60-65mph (65-70 indicated). This is over at least 15 tanks of fuel on my 48 mile each way commute.

I have 21g Dr. Pulley sliders, an old belt, a tall Clearview windshield, de-restricted airbox with WAI, loose valves, .035" plug gap with back cut ground strap, tires inflated to sidewall max.

Exhaust is stock, but peering inside the exhaust it glows dark orange after riding. It's a common occurence on these bikes and possibly indicates a new exhaust is in my near future.

Any advice on a low restriction and quiet exhaust?
