Just a note. Triumph's speedo's are notoriously known for being wrong. From what I've seen, most are 4-6 mph's off. My '02 runs 64mph at an indicated 70 on the speedo. My '96 T-Bird ran 65mph at an indicated 70(both verified by GPS). I havn't seen any over, just under. From what I gather, the DOT gives a 10% error. If not over that, Triumph won't replace the Speedo(yes, I asked my dealer). The difference increases as speed increases. Flybiker, you may have been a little rich with the stock mufflers so now with the Staintunes you may be spot-on. Mine's bone stock and pulls hard and even right from idle to redline. Tony, 6 l's per 100 km's = 41mpg's here in the US. About normal for solo easy riding with your gears. A 19/40 combo should get you 42-44 mpg's average, maybe a little more if you keep the speeds down below 105kph.
