Mileage - SameeRR - 06-01-2006
Just curious, I know I've talked to Jay and Bagg about this before, but how many miles to the tank are you guys getting on your bikes?
My Buell got 150 miles/tank in its tiny 2 gallon tank.
But my RR only gets about 140 miles/tank in its FOUR gallon tank.
What about you clowns..?

~225 before the reserve on my 500R. 3.8 gallons, IIRC.

I've gone 160 miles with ~0.8 gallons to spare on the F3, mostly highway miles. Average is around 45mpg.

I average about 48 miles to the gallon on the F4, 60/65+ if I'm on the highway. I don't wait for the light to come on, though, I fill up at 140. If you wait for the light there's a good chance you'll end up stranded (I have).

- Apoc - 06-22-2006
~175 before my light comes on... add ~3.5 gallons with prolly 1 to spare.

i have a 5 gal. tank... 1 gal reserve... 220 miles before the light comes on... it comes on with .2 gal left in the main tank... doesnt give too much time to flip it to the reserve... but whatever lol. thats an old carberated bike riden by an asshole
but i dont break the speed limit, but i like to keep it a gear low to have the "ass" to move out of the way of soccer mom and the "rear clip" action they like to pull
