I would say you should be expecting closer to 8 - 9 miles per gallon. There are many factors that can effect your milage, but I would suggest making sure you have the carbs jetted properly for the temperatures you are riding in. Having the right jetting will help maximize your milage.

I get about 10 mpg on my Zr 500 EFI under normal riding conditions.

I know Dano has a 700 RMK and I think he runs in around 9 - 10 mpg when he has the correct jets in for the temperature.
