No, you misunderstood.
The reading is what is shown. If it is thought the units are MPG Imperial, then the equivalent in MPG USA is higher. What you say is true, you get more miles with an imperial gallon than you would with a USA gallon. But calculating the MPG from what is shown on the dashboard, the lower consumption would be if USA MPG units are assumed.
Repeating what I said above, the miles stay the same, but you've managed it with less fuel. Dududucking thought his MPG had deteriorated because he assumed that the MPG was in Imperial Units, but if this was the case, it would be more generous in USA units, i.e. roughly 63 MPG USA.
I still reckon that is bike is showing USA units, so the calculations are unnecessary.
