Yes, my average is about 53 with a low of 45 and as high as 60

I do mostly highway miles at up to 90 with occasional twisties.  It doesn't seem
to matter whether solo, double, with or without luggage (I use eclipse bags that
hang out in the wind).  I believe the 45MPG was the result of a bad tank of gas as
my girlfriend's VFR suffered badly too and mileage came back the next tank on the
same trip.  Over 90, my mileage slips into the high 40's

Mileage seems to vary directly with the right wrist and riding style.
