Darkside MPG

My gas mileage has remained nearly the same after switching to a CT nearly two years ago. I have kept a record of every drop of fuel ever put in my Wing since I purchased it in 2006. For example my average MPG for CY 2009 (Pre CT) was 40.33, CY 2010 was 39.66 and my average MPG for CY 2011 was 39.46. Pretty much the same MPG and the variance is more than likely a result of where I rode and riding conditions. 2009 included several long distance rides in the southwest and midwest (pretty much flat lands) while 2010 took me to the Black Mts in S. Dakoda, Colorado Rockies and northern New Mexico. 2011 was a trip up to Canada and touring through the Canadial Rockies, Washington, Oregon, Northern Cali, Utah, Whyoming, Idaho and Nevada. Most of my riding long distance riding is 2-up and pulling a Turtle Hull trailer.

Ride On!
