    How big is reserve?
    And how is Fred getting 170 miles?!?!
    That's like 52 MPG unless you are
    getting 4 gallons in your tank..
    Acctually I was wrong, I switch over to res at about 160.
    Today is a fill up day for me. I got to work this morning and the trip meter is at 168.0, I will switch to reserve and drive the 24 miles to the gas station where I usually fill up. It normaly takes about 4+ gallons to fill up.

    I will post up the total miles and gallons needed to fill when I get home.



    Ok just filled up.
    With reserve trip meter was at 193.3 miles
    fill up took 4.217 gallons
    So I figure I am geting about 45.7 miles to the gallon..

      as mentioned earlier, it all depends how hard you ride the bike. i average between 39 and 41 mpg. it starts to lose power when the needle starts creeping into the red zone, then i switch to reserve and i'm ok for a while.

      the bike actually died on me once and i had to coast off the roadway when the needle was about 1/2 to 2/3 down to the E. then i switched to reserve and got to a gas station in a hurry.
