In general there are too many variables at play to compare gas mileage figures with others. For MPG values, I generally vary from mid 30's (riding solely in the city, mostly on surface streets) to mid 50's (when mostly out on the open road).
Other variables include our riding habits. I saw the ferret mention that he sometimes is in 6th gear by 45mph. I thought about that on my ride home from work the other day when I realized that I hadn't even shifted out of 3rd gear at that speed. There is no way that I'm going to get the mpg prize around here, lol.
