So after riding my bike on my 135-mile per day round-trip work commute for three days now, I am getting 56 miles per gallon! That is insane! All the more reason I am loving the bike so far!

Yeah, that's the fun part about my name. Yup yup, I am very surprised. The guy I bought it from said I'd be looking at maybe 40MPG. I guess he didn't do an all-highway commute every day.

I drive,or schould I say drove, a Honda Element to work.It would take about 1/2 a tank to get to work and back a day.A 130 to 135 miles round trip,started riding my XB9R,takes only 2 gallons a day.Right now I am saving about $200 to $275 a month in gas.Only yet another reason to love my Buell!

Awesome, glad the results ARE typical. I wonder... do riders with the factory race kits get similar mileage?
