hi,

hope ur bike is fitted with CV carborator.
Do adjust the ideling speed of engine lesser than 800rpm, but do it after travelling for around initial 05 Kms after starting ur journey as the engine heats up, the ideling will require very less fuel during long journeies.

B4 journey change ur filter to paper filter ( If ur using KNN filter) or get the existing filter cleaned thoroughly.Ensure Tire pressure is adiquate & also all the greacing, lubing chain is done properly.

Don't drive ur bike above 2500RPM in first 3 gears. after crossing 60kms/ hr in 5th gear, gradually increase ur speed by trying to keep ur rpm lesser than 2800 so that u will find good effeciency.
Try to drive in 5th gear as much as u can..
Don't make full tank, take the fuel for about 05 Ltrs & refill it when it goes to reserve so that u can avoid additional weight of fuel which may also effect ur milage part.

Also i think u should get ur bike thoroughly serviced from authorized service station once.

The best way to have excellent mileage is do push the bike half the distance you want to travel and then drive as mentioned Natu. In this way, youcan double teh mileage.

Always check tyre air pressure for optimum milage.
