Yank, I've been riding my '93 750 since I bought it new. 41 mpg in town is about right, though I'm a little heavy on the throttle, so some might do better. This summer on the open road, I was getting a solid 45 mpg.
Personally, I like the gearing setup. The tach shows 5,000 rpm at 75mph and (at least on my bike) it's dead smooth. That's a good rpm to start at if you want to pour on the coals for a pass. On my road trip this summer I spent most of my highway time in 4th gear, unless it was a loooong flat straight stretch. If you want to lower the rpms at highway speed, change out the front sprocket from the stock 15 tooth to a 16 tooth. It's a common Nighthawk mod and will drop your top gear rpms at 75 mph to 4600.
