Hello Foccer's, After a reasonably sedate commute to Acton the other day. I had managed to get just under 150 miles with quarter of a tank left. This got me thinking that I could get another 50 before my fuel light comes on and I know the bike is capable of 70 miles on reserve. Could this be a record coming up ? Anyway, I kind of got a little bit distracted by the throttle and only achieved 185 miles before the unnecessary worrying fuel light came on. Still, I took it pretty easy from then on and managed a staggering 259.5 miles before it started to splutter. I put in a measured 1/2 litre and rode 2 1/2 miles to the garage where it took 22 litres (much to the annoyance of everyone behind me :lol ). This was all done sporting a 45litre top box. It's going to be interesting to see if this is still capable of this after it's been Ivanised.
