This is bizarre. I have 14 MPG city, 17-20MPG freeway in my modified non-DI Rodeo.

W Wayne Roll Me Over Driving style does have a lot to do with it. I ride a Honda Magna. I average around 45 mpg. When I ride lightly, I can get over 50-52 mpg, with a one-time peak of 56. My friends don't know how--they get 30-35 mpg. Well, when I ride with them, so do I. Lots of high revs, racing and braking (it's a crotch rocket engine in a cruiser frame). To me, that wastes gas and wears out the brakes. I'm lucky if I hit half the max redline (10k RPM). As Randii loves to say, "Your mileage may vary" (YMMV) [color:"white"]? 04 Rodeo DI ?[/color] 75k mi, body damage on the 1st weekend I got it.
