Has anyone else noticed that the CB650R's average fuel consumption readout is inaccurate? I've coveraged about 800 miles on my CB650R and these are the fuel consumption figures from the trip computer readout and my manual calculations after each refilling of the petrol tank:
Dash display: 64.0 61.6 60.7 61.8 58.4 60.7 mpg - average so far 61.2mpg
Calculated: 63.2 67.4 68.4 64.7 65.0 68.5 mpg - average so far 66.2mpg
The average difference so far is that I'm actually getting about 10% more mpg than the trip computer is telling me. The last few bikes that I've owned have had quite accurate trip computer readouts, but it seems that this Honda is not as accurate.
