02 Triumph Sprint ST 955i - 45 MPG
96 Triumph Thunderbird 900 - 38 MPG
73 Triumph Tiger 750 - 50 MPG
68 Bridgestone 350 GTR - 75 MPG
General rule of thumb is the smaller the bike engine, the better the mileage. Little 250's get at least 70 MPG...

I have a 2007 Ninja 250, 73 mpg!! Sweet since I make a round trip of 60+ miles to commute to work each night.
My husband has a new Yamaha FJR 1300. 45-50 mpg. I just rode it for the first time last night and I am in love!!! Still like my little Ninja, but the FJR is in a class all it's own.
We also have a 74 Honda CB 360--35-40mpg.

About 25 to 30 mpg on a Softail, 1988 with Evo motor. Most riding is in foothills and mountain passes, a lot of gear changes and uphill grades. Some performance upgrades, Mikuni 42mm, cam, rev limiter. And the vast majority of the time packin', a good percentage saddlebags full.

A 2005 Suzuki GS500F. It gets between 50 and 60 mpg depending on the temperature (it's air cooled) and how I ride it.

'99 Vulcan 750 Cruiser (production halted in '06)
50-60+ mpg, depending on how I ride it.
Anything above average speeds of 60mph, and it's 50mpg
Below 60mph, easily 60+mpg
