Fuel consumption
#21
Running a -2 front sprocket is just like riding along in 4th gear instead of 6th, so id expect that to be the biggest impact on your fuel consumption rather than your "riding" - but even so, it might be worth doing as someone else suggested and riding it till it actually runs out (with a can of petrol strapped on behind you), to see where "empty" is and what your true tank range is.


Our Gen 1 Fazer 1000 runs around 220 miles until the fuel light comes on (from full), even when blasting Lang pretty quickly (not getting overtaken by anyone).

Does running it to empty not harm a FI bike?  I've always been taught to avoid it with my previous carbed bikes because it tends to drag all the shit from the tank down into the carbs.
