I'm averaging 47 mpg...doing mostly around town commuting so far.

As you would expect, it sounds like overall fuel efficiency is improving as the engine starts to rack up some additional mileage.

I'm getting a consistent 48 with just about every fill up and 1000 miles on the odometer.

First tank fill - 44.25 MPG (Dealer filled originally - Might not have topped off)

2nd tank fill- 3 gallons exactly - 160 miles exactly= 53.33 MPG (And I rode it much harder! Great gobs of mid range torque - you know... the addictive kind!:heart:

3rd Tankful: 48.53 mpg

123 miles, of which @ 25 were city or stop-and-go, and the rest was highway at speeds of 60-80 mph, mostly 65. I was varying speeds on the highway, in 5th, for break-in purposes. A few quick blasts up to 80, because I felt like it. Temperature was hot, @ 85-90F. Altitude @ 250 feet.

Hello.
I just rolled the 1000 mi mark on my CB1100 and have been carefully watching my mileage since day one. I was seeing 43-45 mpg at first and was staying under 4K rpm for the first 600-800 miles. At 750 miles I did the first oil service, a change over to full synthetic and a K&N oil & air filters, and started revving closer to 5K rpms.
MPG is still consistently on the 45-47mpg range.
While I ride solo I am a larger guy, 280 +/-, and I DO enjoy our wonderful WV country roads. I am pretty satisfied with what I'm seeing.

 

[Deanohh_imp]

When new I took it up to 5k and down about 20 times. Then I started shifting at 6k. Changed oil / filter a 175 miles. Now shifting at 7k occasionally..... And I thought I was being conservative.

anyway, milage has been 40, 45, 45.

No one I asked ever ventured any idea on mileage. Of the three dealerships where I asked about break in periods all were really vague, two saying to just not flog the crap out of it for the first 500mi to ride it like I stole it.All three said 1st oil at 600-800 mi.

The owner's manual basically says to take it easy for the first 300 miles.

I find it interesting that the Honda website doesn't list a MPG figure for the CB1100.

 

[Deftquiver_imp]

Yeah, the gas mileage thing was a big worry for me... Although I don't really care about it as far as cost, with a 3.9 gallon tank, range becomes an issue. I'v got to say, I'm really glad I took the leap of faith.

 

[Buffalorider_imp]

I sort of wish I had another gallon of fuel in there, but then I look at those lines and just say WTF.
It's too good looking to change.
I think I am shopping for another Road Star with a nice big tank to troll on.

The brochure I just got lists the estimated consumption at 37 mpg

 

[Buffalorider_imp]

The CB now has around 2500 on it and mileage has improved somewhat and is now consistently in the 48-49 mpg range and careful riding has even brought just over 50 on one or two occasions.
