Thats awesome. The most I've had is about 64mpg on a K6 with some mods.

What was your calculation for working it out?

miles travelled divided by gallons used

I did 56 on my K5 on a mixed route of 200 miles around Fife. Very happy with that. All about smooth progressive riding, it's almost like a personal challenge to me lol.

I've even started doing it in the car, trying to the the "miles to empty" screen up to its maximum of 999 for as long as possible.
