RE: mpg question.
I don't have the 6r, but 120-130 miles to the tank seems reasonable on hard riding. My 10r with only a couple of 180mph bursts, the light would come on at around 120 miles.

RE: mpg question.
It probably has more to do with the fact that you don't fear opening up the throttle like you used to. Also, it wouldn't be a bad idea to check your air filter and see what it looks like. A dirty air filter will rob gas mileage. When's the last time you changed the oil? That can have a lot to do with it as well. Also, check your spark plugs. It sounds to me like your bike is fine, but if it's something you are concerned about, give your bike some simple maintenance, and you'll have that peace of mind.
