I do year-round commuting and get 44 to 48 mpg. There are no "chicken strips" on these tires. The rear tire lasted 12,000 miles, the front has half way to go.
To say "beginner bike" is an injustice. 50 years of riding and I feel that a beginner bike is called a Moped. One set of plugs and full by the book service at the dealership is all that has been needed.
This is the East Coast and a 200+mph bike is a rush, but is wasted. Every time you get to warp speed you need to stop and pay a toll. There is plenty of power from this bike and it's still inexpensive to insure. I rate this a best buy!
