Thanks for the responses everyone. Good to hear some variances to compare.
However, I think it would be useful to find what type of roads you are riding on. My friend told me that American fuel consumption is usually overflated in comparison to stop-and-go city traffic in Sydney, Australia. I'm assuming a majority of American riders here ride through wide open highways and backroads?
The type of riding I do are congested traffic and rarely go over 50mph. I also use short bursts of throttle to quickly accelerate ahead of traffic.. I usually get around 38mpg (about 6.2L per 100km). Does that sound reasonable?
