Default Random / pointless question I was curious about... {rpm vs. fuel use}
Hey all - I'm 22 recently out of college and working in the city now.. most of my trip is highway miles (40/45 miles per way is highway) so I was curious what the best RPM range for MPG would be for the highway. I generaly go about 80 and am at around 4 - 5.5 k rpm's in 6th gear. My bike is a Suzuki GSXR 1000 (2003). Anyone happen to know where I should be keeping my RPM's at for most MPG? Doesnt really matter because Im going to ride how I want to.. was just curious though.

Thanks, CJ
