Ye pretty similar to what I get then, roughly 31 mpg on a normal mountain road spin. But if I was going to town or commuting to work it drops to about 29mpg.
This bike is so much fun it’s hard not to be smiling riding it. Just wish it was more economical or at least had a bigger tank

Even a 5 gallon tank would make a huge difference.

Right now my MT10 says I get 7.5L per 100km. The fuel light comes on around 120/130km with the initial half tank bar on the fuel gauge dropping around 70-80km. Once the fuel light comes on and starts flashing what are people tending to get? Perhaps I’m just filling up way too soon? I'm getting about 115 miles/185 km between fill-ups. I'll put about 12 or so miles (~19km) on it once it starts flashing and the fuel trip pops up. My commute is probably 50/50 city/highway with lots of hills and traffic lights. I have a decat and an ECU flash as well. According to my fill ups I'm averaging 27.8 MPG (8.46 l/100km) since new and I'm a hair over 3000 miles on the bike now. She's thirsty for sure! www.fuelly.com/motorcycle/yamaha/mt-10/2019/willl84/1024567I'm actually considering trading it for a 1290SDR. For whatever reason insurance on the MT-10 is CRAZY high (and it's not just me) and the SDR is averaging closer to 40MPG: www.fuelly.com/motorcycle/ktm/1290_super_duke_rHow much is your insurance and what company are you using? I have Mapfre and it's pretty resonable.

I had Safety and I can't remember why now, but they were a sucky company. I'd get a quote from Mapfre. I think they are almost local to you.
