It all depends on how you ride it. I never had very good gas mileage on my bikes.

Could have found a better deal but it's pretty much what I wanted and I was having an impulse buy kinda day. Gave $4900 for it. 22K miles. Found one the same year with 12k miles for the same price but I didn't want to drive that far. Rode it this evening and it'll work for now..nothing wrong with it that I can find.
