Last night I downlowded onto my iPad mini, an app called AutoCare. I'll have to give it some time to see if I like it. It's not motorcycle specific but you can add a motorcycle icon. I think that's the only difference between that and the car specific portion.
It keep tracks of fuel comsumption and service data. You can also set it to alert you to do specific types of service at either a particular date of mileage. Seems a little bulky and you have to put in a lot of data but I think it may work to keep track of things for me. I spent a lot of time putting in the service records from the previous owner. I hope that wasn't a waste of time.

Your service records are the most important, but previous service records give you a point from which to start until you perform your own service intervals. Your service records are then your base line and you move forward from there so the previous records may no longer be of any value.
The app sounds pretty good and you will find out what features are the most important as you go along.
In the meantime, ride safe and have fun!!

Most of these apps you need to tweak a bit to work for you
I'm rather oldskool....I actually use a pen and WRITE my service dates in the back blank pages of my bike's Owner's Handbook!
Crazy huh?
As far as fuel mileage goes....I don't care. Riding is not essential like my car and I consider it just for fun. The only thing that would matter to me is if my mileage suddenly plummeted showing that something was wrong with the bike.
I swear my MINI Cooper gets better mileage than my 4 cylinder 1200 Trophy though! It kind of makes sense that a fuel injected 4 cylinder car would do better than a 4 cylinder bike with 4 carburetors. Especially since I ride harder than I drive.

For me on the bike the most important thing is range of a tank of fuel as I am also one that is not really worried about the miles per x 
I'm with seeker. I'm old school too and keep written records. I'm not into ipads, app's and all the latest hand-held electronics stuff.
Well....maybe not exactly "written" as it's all on my PC. I make up service sheets and update them with stuff like the age of my batteries; age of my tires (tubes); last oil and filter changes; brand of oil and filters; tire pressures, etc., etc. I print the pages and tack them up in my shop and garage for easy reference.
I also list the many common and most used wrench (spanner) sizes for each bike which are metric, SAE and whitworth.
As far as gas mileage goes I don't give much thought to that either - unless as seeker said - it suddenly drops like a stone.
The cost of the gasoline is the cost of having that much fun!!
