Fuel efficiency of my Honda NX500 post 120 km highway ride

MID showed an impressive 28.1 km/l, I feel this bike can easily deliver 30km/l+ over longer distances

Quick ride update:

Did a breakfast ride with few friends couple of days ago & quite happy to say that this bike is FUN !!!

We rode to a nearby food joint (approx. 60kms from my place) ride was entirely on national highway but monsoons made it look like proper off road section in few patches ! Bike is surprisingly easy to ride in almost all situations & i could easily cope up with bigger bikes in group (Tiger 900 RPs), 100-120kmph is sweet spot with almost no vibes, just a little buzz on handlebar grips but nothing annoying. Noticeable vibes creep in at speeds above 120 kmph especially at seat though. Wind protection is decent with stock windscreen.

Total ride distance was ~120 kms & avg. consumption shown by MID was an impressive 28.1 kmpl, i feel this bike can easily deliver 30kmpl + over longer distances with sane speeds which will be absolutely fantastic for touring.

All in all a really nice bike if you look beyond the price.
