Hi guys, recently bought a preowned 2017 duke 390. Best bike ever imo. However, I find that the fuel consumption is rather high. Im averaging around 20km/l. My low fuel light will turn on at 180ish km.When i went to refuel, Im refueling 10.5l. Full tank I’ve gone slightly less than 210km. Is this normal? Anyway i can improve it? I’ve done fuel injector cleaning & throttle body cleaning. Previous owner did valve clearance. The bike is fully stock too, I dont see any power commander or piggy back ecus connecting to it.

my bike normal riding highway between 110-120 km h is around 25-27 L/km. if I push it harder in some climbs (20 kms approx) its near 20-22L/km
I check by refilling the tank and Kms done, the motorbike consume average indicator its not so accurate.
I weight 70KG 😄
hope it can help you.
