I was 25mpg in the city and 45mpg on freeway at 70mph. Now changes to 30mpg in the city and 49 or 50mpg on freeway same speed as same as the gauge average fuel consumption too.

Wow,, if you have a %20 increase in city,, and %10 increase highway,,, and a power boost,,, we will all be swapping out out fuel pumps !! For us high milers,,, why wouldn't we do that anyway,,, as opposed to carrying a spare ?? If they are less than $20,, and I understand it is not a big job. cheers, CAt'

Trying to ride a ST1300 with a bad fuel pump is fun, you all should try it at least once!

Bad Fuel Pump ride, trying to get home.

I believe the fuel canister filter clogged so after the replacement fuel flowing much better. I saw a little bit metal and some debris under filter when i removed it.
