does anyone have any info on mileage differences after the v&h exhaust and new jet additions?  i kinda like getting over 50 mpg.

thanks

I re jetted (20, 65, 145) + full exhaust system + k&n filter and have noticed no increase or decrease in fuel consumption. But I suspect its about how you ride.

If I'm looking to conserve fuel I cruise around town at 4,000rpm, with steady acceleration and deceleration.

If I'm revving her out I find she gets thirstier but not ridiculously so.
