Just looked at mine and it shows 184 miles and it's sat just under the 1/4 mark.....

250 from my 2002 foxeye being careful before the light comes on, less if I'm tanking it :-)

If you're proper caning it, you can see the fuel gauge moving towards empty at an alarming rate as you ride! :eek :eek

I suppose it all depends what 'load' your carrying, two up, luggage, and of course the weight of each indivitual rider and as Christo says, if your caning it!

Guess it all depends on what weight your carrying, not getting personal guys, so don't bite back lol
I'm sure there must be a sort of average for a guideline, I know it depends on lots of factors, weight, type of riding, etc, from what I gather it's about 170/180 but is that before light comes on or running it near enough dry? Cheers.

Tank sizes differ
98/99 18 litres 00/01 20 litres 02/03 22 litres As I said earlier, a rough but fairly good guide is 10 miles per litre.

I think it works out about 10p a smile mile
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.

Think I've solved it guys!
Put fuel when speedo reading 22719 Filled it up Now reading 22864 Difference of 145 till light came on. But still leaves the dilema of how come I've only done 58.9 miles as I reset the trip. A) I've pressed it during riding at some point and reset it? Or B) the trip meter is faulty? Will try with next fill up and see what happens Cheers sinto :-)

Yeah Darrsi, I don't think I'll be trying it either lol Never like running it that low! Fuel in it tomorrow then I'll see what I get from that but think I now may of reset it somehow without realising it so fingers crossed :-D

Did you disconnect the battery? The trip gets reset whenever the battery is disconnected, even with ignition turned off there is a live connection to the clocks to keep the trip meter memory working
