I've hit 30 only once in 14000 miles. And as long as I'm at it: '81 Kawasaki with clubman bars (the reduced frontal area really makes a BIG difference), 57-58 mpg on daily commute, 62-63 mpg on highway trips, same speeds. Eat your heart out, you gas mileage freaks! And BTW, my little Kawasaki has been known to thoroughly humiliate a '71 Corvette with a 454! Au Nguyen
