Microlon followup 2

111 miles, 2.5 gallons = not quite 45 mpg. Not nearly as good as before. Most of this tank was out on I-40 between 65-75mph with strong, gusting winds from the front and side(depending on direction travelling). If you've never been on a bike, strong headwinds really drag on you, so I'm not unhappy with this. As I recall, last time I took a trip to Fort Worth I had winds like this all the way down, and I think I got about 40(wasn't tracking it closely; just "I'm on reserve, and YES! there's a gas station!)
