Specialist8, I weigh about the same and get about the same mileage as you do. I'm at around 2400 miles. I just chalked it up to the fact that I love to crack the throttle and can't expect good mileage with that driving style. I will say that when I really try to dive conservatively I get better mileage, but I don't think I have ever gotten better than the mid/upper 40's range. For that mileage increase it's just not worth it to me most of the time (unless I am in danger of running out of fuel). I say just enjoy it and don't over analyse it. And sometimes, ride it like you stole it!!
