Terrible mileage!

[Ben_D]

My mileage is only 28-30 mpg! Do any other CSC Victory Trikers experience similar mpg?

Riding 2 up, mostly back roads, we've been getting 32-36mpg. Used to be 42-46 before the trike. It is what it is. This is with the cams, airbox and power commander.

That is a really beautiful Crossbow! Lehman’s conversion on the Vision was beautiful! If Lehman was still around and I could have found a Crossbow, would have been on one in a heartbeat! We ride a 2012 CCT with a California Sidecar conversion. We really enjoy it and it gets the “What a beautiful bike, what type of Harley is it?” Comments! We put on about 8-10,000 miles a year, in various topography, but usually 2-up and fully loaded. We get 32-35 mpg. If in the mountains, seems to drop to around 30mpg. Flat highway riding we will get up to 42mpg. I try to stay around the 2,700 to 3,000 rpm range. The bike has cams, tuner and Lloyd’s intake, about 115 torque and 108 horses.

Looks like the one that CSC had on the showroom floor when I was there 7 yrs ago Gale. Perl white is really nice . :clapping:

It may be the one on the CSC showroom from 7 years ago! It was originally purchased 7 years ago from CSC at the Sturgis rally, then taken home to Minnesota. The previous owner then moved to Florida, where I purchased the bike. It has no VIN. Number on the conversion kit to track it, which indicates it may have been a beginning mock up model. Wherever it came from, it has been a wonderful trike for us!
