I did have new tires fitted recently so assume that helped. For reference just cruzin' down the a nice duel carriageway at 60 mph. Touring mode and 42 teeth rear sprocket !
Nice! I hover around 48mpg on average and haven't reset my trip since I picked the bike up. I do notice that motorway running on the 1260 is very efficient, even with the change in gearing (+1 front sprocket).
I’d be interested to see what my 2015 1200 dvt is getting to the gallon , it’s permanently in sport & always 2 up, so im guessing no where near those figures
Its a nice to know figure, but in the real world I haven't dropped all this money on the bike to fuss over the mpg. Its not a daily commuter. My mate did like to say his GS 1250 did return 62 mpg once..............
Shameful. That must be one of the most sedated rides anywhere. Mileage like that on a Ducati is nothing to be proud about. You're not riding it hard enough. Cane it down and to mid thirties and report back.
I don't patirucalr care for 'caning it' on a 12 hour motorway ride to Lyon... But yes, on the twisties, mpg counting goes out the window lol
