Re: Fuel Tank capacity and range...

I once got close to 300 miles, only because I passed a filling station where I should have stopped. The bike kept going beyond the "0 miles remaining" message, and it still wouldn't take the 24 litres the tank was supposed to hold . I regularly see 57mpg (imperial),which would mean a theo...

Have ridden a few hundred miles, but today whilst riding in pretty bad rain ( no idea if connected or not...!) the lights on the dash and LCD backlight all went off. Then came back on. Then went off. And so on. As time went on, they were certainly more off than ...
