What do you get to the tank

[tink]

as titled be intresting to see what we are all getting (please state bike aswell)

[cargo]

Full tank give me over 75 miles................at race speeds with 2 litres to spare

[Danman109]

Used to get 140miles on the L9 if i was being super careful!!

usually filled up at about 120 to be on the safe side.

[Tirpitz]

About 140 thrashing the tits off it.

110 to 120 miles before reserve mostly ..

although 73 miles to completely empty once .. but that was with luggage and a massive rucksack, and the only point where the throttle wasnt pinned was when i went for reserve (M6 @ night on a trip to scotland)

[banner001]

ZXR 400 L4, no fueling/airflow mods, sensible riding, with the odd 120mph thrash here and there

i leave the fuel gauge on reserve, cant be arsed flicking it from normal to reserve all the time.

Doing my daily commute i get ~43mpg, i fill up once it hits 100 miles.
Going back up and down the motorway i get ~57mpg, i fill it up once it hits 140-150 miles to be on the safe side.

So for a full 16L tank i would get 150 miles before running out doing my commute, and i would get 200 miles going up and down the motorways, again until ive run it dry.

EDIT: commuting this week gave me 113 miles to 10.8L petrol RON 95, so thats 47mpg...not too bad

Most I've got just to see how far I could go from fully brimmed (sat on bike) to reserve is exactly 123 miles, but I use almost purely for fun and I don't need to commute to school/work. Usually fill up around the 100-110 mile mark. 33bhp bike btw.

first tank i got through on my l2 33 brake was 193.4 now i usually get about 160/180 ish, something tells me i need to have a bit more fun

[zxr400rider]

Are you mad? So you can turn yourself into a fireball if you have a minor off and the bottle ruptures? Or someone runs into the back of you

There's a reason why petrol tanks have to meet certain standards of robustness. It's also illegal to store petrol in other than certain authorised containers so when you do turn yourself into a human candle expect plod to come to see you in intensive care (and the insurance refuse to pay out).

Not a good idea. Does your reserve tap not work?

230km+/- about 140miles and i thrash the tits off it from time to time
