Yes! With about 1700 miles on my new 01 ST now, my best so far has been
56MPG and that was mixed, with 1/2 at 70 or < up in the Arizona high country
and the second 120 miles at speeds of 75-85 MPH, coming back to PHX, down
I-17.
My last tank was 52MPG and was mixed Freeway and canyon carving on Apache
Trail (hwy 88). My worst mileage was when the ST was brand new at ~48MPG.
I'm impressed with the miserly manners of my Sprint. I thought my SV-650 was
good at 52 MPG average but it's also 305cc less displacement and 100+ lbs
lighter.
