My 2011 Harley Rode Glid Custom gets close to 50mpg with the 103 motor. The Honda Valkery I had averaged around 33 mpg but in a head wind that would fall to 23 real quick. Plus any fast interstate 75+ driving I had to stop every 100 miles and it had a 5 gal tank! It was one of thoes bikes that you run out of gas and had to switch to reserve to get to a gas station.

My '79 CB would get about 45mpg combined city/highway, a little higher if all highway.
My '84 Shadow gets about 50mpg.  700cc vs. 750cc, and the Shadow is a bit lighter.
My 2004 Honda Metro blows them both away: 100 mpg.  50cc vs. 700, and 35 mph vs 70+.
