I drop to 45mpg at 65 but that 50mpg is really nice when you are stretching your fuel dollar...

Was 55mph the fastest you went or was there a few quick roll-ons here and there? That is awesone!! The best I've been able to get was about 42-44..

if you are on stock gearing, the map is just too fat on the low end.. I think the issue is most dyno guys want max power all the time... IF/WHEN Ryan ever calls me back I am going to ask him about that.. Why not set the first 25% of the throttle (MAP) for economy cruising? and the top half of the MAP for performance..

I like not worrying about fuel until the 190-220 mark. I would happily trade a bit of "umph" for mileage
 
42t rear sprocket.

it was originally mapped 10% fat to compensate for NOS,I dont use it often enough to justify running it like that so I had it re mapped without the NOS and still get poor MPG
 
Dialing mine in this weekend to around 45 mpg for the Bash trip! Don't really need 160+ rear wheel horsepower on the Dragon!!! Busa skydiving is not my idea of a good trip!!
