>Hello,
>I've recently purchased an '05 Monster 620 that was used at a press day (it 
>had 800 miles on the engine), but sold to me as new from Hattar Motor 
>Sports.  The engine is taking a LONG time (6-9 minutes) to warm up and get 
>out of the "low" temp range.  I imagine I'm using some gas during that warm 
>up period, but even so, on open roads, I'm getting only about 35mpg.   
>Curious, given this info - is this warm-up time/mileage per gallon common?
>
>Also, I'm new to the forum - not sure if you post all inquiries & how to 
>figure out when/if I'm getting responses?
>
>Thanks!
