Honda Gold Wing Long Term Report #5: My (Feeble) Attempts at Hypermiling the Gold Wing

If you remember my last Honda Gold Wing Long Term Update, I had a jammed side trunk, a clean bike, and a desire to put more miles on my Titanium-colored 'Wing.

After finding the release latch (thanks to the knowledgeable folks in our Motorcycles Forum) and visiting my local Honda dealership, I was ready to take the 'Wing on the road and see what kind of fuel economy I could pull.

How did it go? Read my Honda Gold Wing Update #5 to find out (there's a not-so-subtle hint in this blog headline), and check out these previous long term updates:
