Standard gearing is 15 teeth front sprocket and 48 rear. As others have said yours isn't standard or your not in 6th gear. That's assuming your clutch isn't slipping :eek , but I guess if it was it would have burned out by now.
I'm a bit of a nerd when it comes to fuel consumption and always record how much I'm putting in. Driven sensibly and without much town work I consistently get 58 to 60 m.p.g.. Plenty others get the same. On my 2001 model this gives a range of at least 200 miles before the fuel low light starts to come on. Some others, who probably thrash about more than me, seem to get round the 50 m.p.g. mark.
