Speed?

130 km/h avg.

The length of your trips and temp will make a difference too.  The motor isn't very efficient when it is cold.  If your trips are often short enough that a good portion of the trip is done on a fairly cold motor, your mileage will suffer.

well, your explanation makes sense. Can you tell the difference in km/L ration between hot and cold engines?

130 km/h avg.

Ok - that's not too bad then 

I'd still be unhappy with the city numbers, but I no longer think anything is seriously wrong.
If you can get your dealer to check it - even better.

how many miles do you have on the bike?  my 796 was getting high 30's - low 40's mpg during the break in.  it wasnt until after 2k miles that it finally broke in enough to start averaging around 48 mpg

1000 miles...

I have a 1100 EVO with les than 2K miles on it and a fule tank gave me 150 miles before i was stranded on the side of the road. That's 44 miles per gallon (on the 3.4gal tank).

I have been checking the consumption for a while and its always close to 40 mpg.

My bike was purchased in California, where I believe there are higher emission control standards...not sure if bikes shipped to other states vary.

Hope this helps.

Are you getting 120km before the light comes on or is that using every last drop?I get between 80-100 miles before the light comes on if I'm using the bike as my daily driver with multiple engine start and stops and letting it warm up in the morning before I leave. Whereas I get about 120 miles or so before the light comes on when cruising on the freeway. I know the tank isn't very big on these bikes 3.6 gallons, so range is somewhat limited, but after 120 miles its good to get off the bike and stretch for a few minutes.

in city riding (well my kind of city means bumper to bumper traffic and Race starts at the redlight to get away from the guy who just flipped me off for bumping his mirror with my elbow at 3mph for, and takign 1 hour to move 12 miles....)

anyway in my type of city riding, i can only get 90 miles out of a 3gallon fill.  which is roughly 145km/11liters. but you're bike probably isnt broken in yet ( i saw a HUGE increase in MPG when i broke the bike in properly)

My lowest tank MPG was 42; best was 48mpg.  No rhyme or reason, but I am seeing the trend of fuel economy going up as the miles get piled on...
