If thats from the OBC, isnt the figure shown the air temperature?
Plus I would have thought that 13 degrees celcius would be a little cool even for our sticky out, air cooled 1930's cyclinders

Mine started saying 60mpg right after the dealer update/download.
Pinch of salt now added with every tankful.
Fuel gauge is at least now usable

Regularly see low to mid 50mpg with me riding in normal mode ( like a twot then ! )
Proly be able to do very high 50's and maybe a 60mpg if I took care...
I never go by the OBC, merely what I put in and the miles covered

sorry, havn't got an on board computer.
13.5 litres of fuel - 180 miles
(not a one off - check every tank
)
have had 45 going through Spain but generally 50-53.
stupid thing is, I recon with an 1150GS style 'E' gear top it would be 5-10 mpg better.
its my one dissapointment with this bike (best on 1150GS/1150GSA with high gearbox was 67mpg)
funny that am still on original discs at 60,000 as well.
you will say I ride like tart - I may say I dont slow down for corners

Dropped a bit on the way back down a bit

we will all be getting 70 plus mpg if these new speeding fines are implimented.

According to my on board computer my L/H cylinder has been getting 2.5mpg & the R/H gets 2.9mpg or at least that's my guess???
My 08 GSA at best returns 48mpg according to the OBC. Never seen 50plus and I don't think I ride it that hard
Does have Remus full system and K+N but still.

I've had to ride like a snail since living in a police state called Western Australia, the traffic cops here are like fascists (mostly cops are ex-pat Brits anyway) and no, you don't get anywhere near 70mpg.
