Whats up boys! New to the addicts. I wanna get my posts up. I hate having my learners permit. Anyway, with rising gas prices...how are you riding your bike lately? I find myself shifting around 5k to keep the revs low to conserve gas...especially the highway.

Well I don't really pay too much attention whether or not to ride the revs low....when Im in the mood to go I will give it throttle...other times I find myself shifting at 3 or even 4 thousand

Seriously though, I just ride...I can get 150-160 mi. out of a tank(probably more but I fuel up as soon as the light comes on.)

I wanna get my posts up. I hate having my learners permit.

Carefull...might stay like that forever :lol:

I should be riding my scoot now more then ever with the way gas prices are now, but because of my job, I really can't.

Like hoo hoo joey said "I ride my bike like its stolen"

But on a side note: kennedy acts like he doesn't pay attention, but i hear his throttle rail every time he clutches that bad boy up. :evil2:

I still ride normally on the bike, going hard when I want, I really try to take it easy in the truck.

I had recently changed my gearing to 16/40 (-1/+2), I'm thinking of running 17/40 now (had done previously).

Even with a GPI I still try for 7th on the open road. :crazy:

Nothing like feeding a big twin, still, it sips or gulps depending how the articulated infinite throttle adjustment mechanism is utilized.

I was just thinking about this the other day. As a newb I'm sure I'm not riding efficiently enough to get the best mileage. All in due time, I guess.
