Going to & from Sturgis last year with my wife on the back (she's a skinny little thing) & bags full, I averaged 44 mpg. The bike is all stock. In town, to & from work, it averages at 40 mpg. Better than the Warrior I had (but it wasn't stock), it got 32 in town & 36 mpg on trips........Every 100 miles, I was hoping there was a gas station close by.

My buddys I ride with have Dynas with the 88 inchers & they get great mileage.........a tad over 50 mpg. So they always ribbed me in fun (when I had the Warrior) cause they'd fill up every other time I'd have to fill up. It's not as often now with the Strato though...........better mileage & more capacity than the Warrior.
