I usually get 54mpg and it never seemed to vary much. The tankful before last I decided to take things a bit slower to see if it reduced fuel consumption, and it did, slightly: an excellent 56mpg. I intended to continue gentle riding with the last fill-up, but sort of got bored with it and reverted to my usual style... and got 253 miles out of the 18 litres I'd stuck in there. That's 30 miles more than I'd normally get and equates to 63mpg. Weird.
A generous fuel pump was one possible explanation, but I'd not run the tank unusually low before the fill-up, I'd not have expected to get more than 18 litres in.
So I've no idea what's going on.
Not that I'm complaining, I look forward to finding out what the current tankful returns.
