How many miles till empty?

[smileyman]

Mileage wise the ZedX is capable of 180 but the furthest i have stretched it is 177 and i was getting nervous. The 1125R should go that far but gets worse mileage with a bigger tank and I have never pushed it past 140 or so. That will change when I go riding more this summer I am sure.

With the last reflash my low fuel light went from 120 miles to 150ish.
The Drummer helped a bit more.

A downside? When this puppy's fuel tank is full don't get it leaning far to the side with your boot on a gravel surface sloping away. Did this while tilting the bike over between the legs for a better book photo. Boot started slipping down the right side slope, the bike heavily and quickly started falling towards the side of the slipping boot. I threw the camera (a sacrificial act), grabbed the bars, the boot caught traction (very fortunately), and saved/righted with serious grunt force what could have been a nasty accident.

"Supertanker"? How about "Stratotanker"

Trip, you should make up some vinyl for him- saying "KC-135" "Stratotanker" and make up some tail numbers too. He could run around refueling other bikes

Because that isn't uncommon, just a standard GSA. You need to see the one drewpy's dad has...that's the super tanker. It's got like side cases of fuel that funnel in to the main tank. He can literaly refuel other bikes wiht it. I think he can do an iron butt without stopping or close to it.

Dayum! My be-hind and my gas tank are in perfect synch.

90-100 I look for gas. 120-130 is probably get off the bike and push time. 3.6 gal tank.. when I fill up about 2-2.5 goes back in.

I drilled out the resonators a while back, so mpg took a slight hit from that. About to do some maintenance on the bike this weekend though, so hopefully I can get a bit more out of it.

I get around 250 km.

250 km = 155 miles

180-190 km = 112-118 miles

The raft in the image was one of three on their way into the Monument for a three day trip of whitewater and riverside camping. Dang.

I don't see any pictures - just a broken image.
edit - NOW the picture shows up.

I have no idea how many miles I get from a tank, probably 150 miles or so.
