No baggy clothing, although with the wind protection I'm getting from my windscreen it wouldn't flap much anyway. Top speed seems to be around 67, but with the area I was doing this I couldn't hold it at top speed for long before I had to roll off for traffic reasons. I will get a better take next spring on top speed.
My 2013 doesn't have a meter, just a gauge. I am calculating by just topping up completely and dividing by miles traveled. 75 point something on both first tanks with about 240 miles on bike altogether.

Re: 75 mpg on new pcx normal?
Not done any milage on my PCX yet to find out what MPG I get. Just wondered while this subject is being discussed if the Idling stop system has much effect on MPG?

Re: 75 mpg on new pcx normal?
My USA spec bike doesn't have idle stop, but for me personally and my use I would see very little value to it. Very few and brief stops.
If your commute involved lots of long stops at lights I would imagine you might see noticeable results, perhaps in the 10-15% range.
