[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1451636, member: 19880"] I am usually very comfortable with 100+ kilometers under normal back roads riding conditions. Considerably less at elevated highway speeds, headwinds etc. The time I filled with 24.7 litres was only 70 km after hitting reserve on the Trans Canada Highway in Saskatchewan in a strong headwind while pulling a trailer. Mileage does vary and I rely on the trip meter and the average consumption meter, especially riding in adverse conditions. Get to know your bike and take note of how much to fill your tank when you hit reserve. Once you know that number, you can hit the average MPG gauge reset and KNOW how far you can go before panicing. Expect to be able to use almost all of the remaining fuel, if needed. [/QUOTE]
