[QUOTE="simpsonbuck, post: 5000663, member: 588278"] I keep my tires inflated 6psi below what the max psi rating is. Your tire will wear faster but you will get better gas mileage. Do not stomp on the gas from a sit still and do not wait till the last minute to stop. On the highway going 65 can give you 10-15% better mileage than going over 70. Cruise control(if you have it) is your friend. Also, weight reduction. Try not to ride around on a full tank of gas. I take the risk of getting a blow out so I take out my spare tire. Aside from that, everyone has pretty much hit the nail on the head. Run a fuel injector cleaner(I use Lucas) every oil change, change fuel filter about every 15,000 miles, get a K&N drop in filter, and keep the lead foot at home. [/QUOTE]
