What Model/year?

I can tell you my '99 SV650s get around 150-170 miles when cruising at those speeds.

I could quickly work out the rough average mileage of yours by averaging MPGs on Fuelly.

On a short tight race track, I average just about that, and get 20 mpg.

Depends more on how hard you accelerate rather than the final cruising speed. You could easily get over 60 while still cruising at those speeds, or down below 40 probably if you're really wringing it out.
