My mileage on the 1200 is around 40 vs 45-50 on the 1100. This was disappointing but I'm over it!

Re: Fuel Mileage on the 620?
Got 60 mpg during break-in (under 5,500 rpm), mixed city/hwy.
Got 48 mpg 1st tank after break-in, mixed.
Now have settled into 52-57 mpg, mixed.
All at 5000' altitude and above.
