First full tank, averaged 75 mpg. Mine's a 2015.
^ This was general suburban riding. Taking it easy (mostly short-shifting for break-in)
I just finished a tank that was mostly expressway at 75 mph. It was 66 mpg for that tank. I can see why folks like the 16T countershaft sprocket.

Do you guys check using the trip meter 1 and reset it on fill up, or do it the manual way?
I'm doing both. The manual way seems to be more accurate, since the computer seems to start from 0 mpg and keep recalculating the average throughout the tank.
What I'm doing now is resetting Trip B with each fill up, leaving Trip A to keep calculating the running average. (and disable the auto-reset for Trip A, in case I run the tank down low) The running average is getting to be more realistic now. For example, it's showing 66 mpg and the last tank WAS 66 mpg, calculated.
When I go on a road trip, I'll probably use Trip A for tank specs and Trip B for its actual intended purpose.
One thing to keep in mind with the manually calculated method: We can't fill up the tank to the same point every time. All we can do is get close. So the running average calculated by the bike MAY actually be more accurate.
