I guess you guys are right. If the oil analysis comes back normal, I guess I'll have to live with mpg in the high 30s low 40s range.

If that's the case, I know it'll bother me too much. I just can't do it....knowing something is "off". I guess as a last resort, I'll buy a used carburetor and swap mine out to see if it fixes anything. If it does fix it, great! If not, I'll resell the carb and I'll trade in the bike for another 250 or 300.

Let me ask you guys something. Be honest....what mpg do you guys get? And how are you guys riding? Redline? Shift below 10k?

I really hate shifting below 6k. I really really feel more comfortable (and safer) shifting between 7-9k rpm.
