I've just recently gotten my baby within the last year, (last October). I went from a 750 shadow to the VTX1300 trike. I guess my question is about gas mileage. I'm used to 50mpg with my shadow, and my trike gets like 25. I expected it to be worse, but my Subaru Forester gets better gas mileage than my trike. Is this typical for trikes? Thanks everyone, I'm newly registered and I look forward to checking in often.
