That doesn't sound too low to me! My '85 has consistently gets about
100-120 miles before the red light comes on... That's only 3.0 gallons,
right? or 30-40 mpg with normal driving...
Crossing the Utah Salt Flats on I-80 at 120+mph the whole way resulted in my
burning all four gallons in only 90 miles, and another siphoning experience
with a mouthful of gas from my buddies 7gal Kawi Concours tanker! (Thank
God for the camel! It's a big desert out there!) I was pretty loaded with
gear, but the poor mileage wasn't due to that I'm sure.

Mileage? 33 sounds pretty low to me, even during break-in. I
consistantly
get 40-50 mpg. on the highway running between 70 and 80 mph. For me
that's
just below V-boost speed. If I bump it up into the 90's and triple
digits,
then the mileage disintigrates. Range is 120 miles +. If I'm in an
area
with lots of stations I'll wait for the light, out in the boonies I
stop as
soon after 110 miles as possible. "mileage is in inverse proportion
to
throttle twist". ;-) Tom M. #259
