The mileage was all over the place- it started out well into the 40+ MPG range but when I hit the headwinds in South Dakota it dropped like a stone. Once the rain started in MT, the wind died down and the mileage picked back up.
The stock C-14 fuel tank is 5.8 gallons but will really hold just 6.0 gallons. I never used that much of the tank of this ride though.
This is my stop log for the trip- the formatting is not very good but you should be able to make sense out of it. The format is Gal., Tot. cost, Tot. Mileage, Tank mileage, MPG. for everything but the first fuel stop and any food stops.

Hi Brian
Great ride and report. A group of us did a BB Gold from the start of Mississippi to Venice LA in April this year. The year before we rode from Angle Inlet the most norther point in the US to Key West Florida in 48 hours. I have a personal appreciation for what you have accomplished.
I am curios as to how many miles per tank and how much fuel you were able to put in the stock tank.
Again congratulations.
