gas mileage and mods

[pitbullmccoy]

I'm just curious of the typical mileage these bikes get with mods. I seem to typically get 31mpg. mods I have.... k&n pods, aftermarket exhaust not sure what brand. po put it on and painted black. and dyna ignition. As far as I can tell, everything else is still stock. I think my mechanic told me I have 115 or 120 main jets when i had the carbs cleaned and sinked. does that sound about like what you guys get hard to believe i would lose 10mpg but if that the way it is then so be it.

You are running rich.
My i000 and 1100 chain-driven bikes get 42-47 mpg and one of them has had everything done to it. (Cams, carbs, exhaust, valves, etc.)

That makes sense. I can smell it. Isn't there adjustments. I'll have to go back and read the rebuild threads. And I'll have to hit cycleorings before i pull mine off.
