There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Touring Range for the newer RTs...

Me too! No problem getting two hundred miles plus out of each tank--if I want to. I believe the most I did was 226 and was pretty much sucking air at that point.
My overall miles per gallon seems to be between 39 - 41. It goes down for some reason now that the weather is cooler here.
I am still riding for the fun of it, and good mpg is just an added bonus. :yes:

I've gone over 200 before, but not often. My MPG is all over the place and I just can't count on what it might be for any given drive. I can't see a correlation to trailer/no trailer, city, highway, etc. :gaah: I just watch the gauge and look for a station when it gets near a quarter or less.

Total miles, divided by number of fuel stops. :thumbup:
But m.p.g.?
I've got that as well.
8,601 miles
217.711 gallons
39.51 mpg

I agree. I seem to be getting about 185 or 190 miles between fill-ups.
It also depends on whether or not I'm riding as a daily commuter or taking it for a long spin.
Just my opinion. I could be wrong, and I'm sure someone here will let me know.

At what Speed
What is your average speed. I usually run between 70 and 75 MPH and pray that I don't get stopped. (he-he)

I am most certainly, a "Low & Slow" rider...
I'm usually under the posted speed limits by a couple of mph; I'm just never in that much of a hurry!

You need to get out more, we had that many miles and gallons on one trip. :roflblack:
I agree that the mileage that Im getting is all over the scale. The best was 37mpg. I travel at the speed limit and above. I have just look at the mileage and then start looking a a gas station. My 2014 I fill up twice for every three times I would fill up my 2011. I just got my 2014 in late April and already have 9000 miles on it.

Lower mileage than expected
I have a 2015 RT-S SE6 with 2600 miles on it. We just got back from our first trip with it where we covered 800 miles in 3 days. I was riding solo and my wife was on her own bike. I averaged 33.4 mpg for the trip with an average speed about 70-73 mph. (We were among the slowest vehicles on the road.)

A wise man that will live many "Moons" and get better gas mileage.

What No One Is Talking About
How milage on the odometer affects mpg/tank hasn't been discussed. My story is almost identical to yours. Another factor that is not mentioned is are these high mpg reports done in ECO mode, or not?????? When I'm on the super slab, I'm in ECO. In the city, I disengage it.

braggers
Brag on Brothers all, while I'm stuck on 27mpg. I do ride a tiny bit aggressively, and enjoy every minute of it. If I wanted bragging rights on gas mileage I'd drive a Fiat 500!
