I keep a careful record (sad, I know) and consistently get circa 60 mpg. I don't often ride as enthusiastically as some people but I still enjoy it, something to do with age and valuing life a bit more probably.
I think most get between 50 and 60 mpg. Is your air filter o.k.. Also check that the fuel enriching things on the carbs are closing properly when the lever in in the normal run position. Some times referred to as the choke.
