An equivelant ZX6R will easily get 50mpg on a commute, I managed to get a maximum 64mpg out of mine when I had to (still on the motorway). Suzuki GSXR of similar age (I have one) is only marginally better at between 40-45mpg. That's one of the reasons why I didn't buy a CBR because of their crap fuel economy.

If it was the CBR600RR i wouldn't mind it being that low, but it's the F version. And i refuse to believe that my riding has changed that dramatically from the sv and the gsx600f that i've used to half the MPG

On a seirous note my current 2003 Hornet (which uses an old carbed CBR engine) is averaging around 48mpg.
I would say you must be absoloutely caning it, or something isn't quite right  . |
I'm working on the something isn't quite right as we all know (i don't think i've ridden with anyone so they can't argue with me) that i'd never cane a bike on the way to work... it's only work i'm allowed to be late
On the other hand i can't undo hte front sprocket to change the chain either so maybe i'm not meant to be riding
