I have a Honda CX500 and I get from 40 to 60. I thought > the SR500 was a much lighter bike and should easily do as well. As I replied to the original poster, my '80 SR500 gets ~49 MPG. His/hers must be broken or out of adjustment. Rings? Valves? maybe. Cheers, -- Daniel M. O'Brien (ihnp4!ihlpa!dob) AT&T Bell Laboratories IH 4A-257, x 4782 Naperville-Wheaton Road Naperville, IL 60566
