    just got my last tank for the month (i think). i drive mostly highway, but with a bit of stoplights. 24 miles, at 50-55mph, a small 2-3 mile stretch at 48, and about a mile combinded on each end to get to house and work from highway. total about 28 miles each way. i usually stop at around 5-7 lights each way, all being in the 55mph zone. the first tank temp was around 40F-60F, so no heater, second i turned heater on for most of it seeing at it was about 30F here.

    Code:
    tank   miles  mfd   gal(US)  calc
    1      464    54.7  8.620    53.83
    2      441    50.5  8.998    49.01
    total  905    52.6  17.618   51.37

    I have seen quite a bit of evidence of what you others have received for fuel mileage in their vehicles. The only piece I see missing is the average speed for said mileage. I know for my two motorcycles what I get at a given average speed. For example, my Kawasaki Ninja 250 gets 52mpg@67mph overall speed while the Honda VFR800 obtains [email protected] average speed. These figures are for the complete average speed during one tank of gas. I use a set of bicycle computers to record the top and average speeds.

    Does anyone have any speed records a correlation to their mpg ratings?

    Enjoy,

    Yup. A search should provide answers. I recall several threads where some have measured speed vs. mileage (usually btwn 50-80mph). Also, if I recall correctly, there's even a thread on drafting lol.
