I just bought my 1999 1500 SE a couple of weeks ago and just checked my mpg today. After a 90 mile trip with my wife on the back, I got just under 30 mpg. Most of our trip was on the freeway at an average speed of about 75 (a few spurts up to 85). And, as mentioned in a previous post, the bike smells of gas fumes, both on warm-up and after riding (when choke is off).
Bike has 100,000 miles. It runs fine, but I'm wondering if it needs to have carbs overhauled and/or a tune up. Any advice?
Thanks,
Rick
