Fuel light

[John O]

Hi all
      2011 rt1200  fuel light comes on at 230 miles ,would this be common on the rt ? Averaging 260/270 per tank.
                                Thanks

I think it is, mine came on and it showed 50 miles range.

Fuel light comes on at 230 miles, would this be common on the RT.

Sounds reasonable to me, what was the remaining range.

[John O]

Ok , there was 35 remaining.
Guess that's about average so. I've heard of people getting 300ml per tank ?

I've heard of people getting 300 miles per tank.

300 miles is achievable, on a trip from Portsmouth, the miles completed + the remaining range came to a total of 380 miles on a tank full of fuel.

Mine comes on with about 50 miles left in the tank. David, are you based in Portsmouth?.

David, are you based in Portsmouth.

No, sorry for any confusion, I was riding back home to Teesside after meeting a friend off the ferry.

That's a shame would have loved a meet up

On my recent trip to Italy I was getting over 300 miles per tank.

I get 61mpg which gives me a range of about 330 miles to a tank, reserve light comes on around the 280 mile mark. That's using Tesco's E10 and commuting to work and back.

With mine, I filled up with the range showing 29 miles after approx 220 - 240miles, it only took 20l to fill it.

Doctor T - Bob 21 is quite near you.  He's a great guy who you might like to ride out with.
