When I run out of gas, about 120 miles. Use to drive truck, so am use to sitting all day. Have done 800 miles in a day with no ill effects the next day.

BMW needs to apply some of that German engineering to their seats. Before I got my new seat I would start to dance around at about 100 miles. Thanks to Rich's I can go 400 miles without a problem except I still have to stop for gas.
The Ducati is a whole different story. I am thankful for every gas stop. |
my bike gets 120 miles to a tank MAX. We usually gas up and go. Louie needs to stretch more than me (RC51) 800 miles of twisties is a normal touring day for us - 5-6 back to back and no ill effects. I heart my Superhawk (just need an aux tank to get farther!).

For me it doesn't matter which bike I am on about every 90 minutes I need a break. But hey I am old.
|
About 100 miles... A bit longer if there's been a couple traffic lights where i can at least put my feet down and stretch out my hands and back.
|
unless there is something out of the ordinary I run it 'till the fuel light is on then stop for fuel and get ready to go again. I do 650 mile days on the CBR and other SS bikes that I had, pretty easily. Have to be creative in seating /standing though to stretch.
haven't taken any trips on the HD cruiser but past experience is that my days shorten considerably on a cruiser. |
I can easily run the 175-200 mile fuel range on the Busa with no trouble.
I can do 700 mile days for 2 weeks straight without any difficulty. |
205 miles, then I get nervous about running out of gas. Did two stretches of this on the GS with no issue my first day with the bike.
I need a better seat and I probably would only have to stop to sleep. Thinking about getting a russell day long in the off season. |
<----- See bike.. Never. :lol: As long I'm not hungry that is. Hunger wears me out pretty fast. I wish my gas tank were bigger!!

This is pretty much me. I dont start getting a lil achy until Im almost into the 3rd tank of gas usually. I do however get bored easily on straight runs about 20 minutes into and start getting ancy and move around alot. I've noticed the more long trips I take on the GSXR the easier they get. Other than the heat, this last trip home from Suches in one shot wasnt even a real ass killer. |
