Just returned from a fantastic eight day trip to the Texas hill country. Well it was fantastic except for that brutal cold snap that came in last weekend. Thank goodness for heated jacket liner, seat and grips.
Anyway just wondering why I am getting such poor mileage on my 2018 Tri-Glide. Friend rode with us and we are both on 2018 Tri-Glides - mine bought last September and his just last month. Both TGs are bone stock - no mods other than shocks on mine and lift kit on his.
Both of us were riding two up with about the same amount of luggage and rider /passenger weight not much different. But he consistently got about 34 to 35 mpg while I only got about 30 mpg (and on a couple fill ups it was just a tad over 29 mpg). We rode very, very little interstate - mostly two and four lane state and county roads with speeds around 60 to 65 mph. It was windy and we fought head winds quite a bit. But still the two bikes were very far apart on fuel mileage.
Just wondering if anyone had thoughts about what to check.
