It really depends on how and where you use it. I commute into London everyday and I'm lucky if I get 85 miles out of a full tank. Yet if I do a long motorway commute I've been able to get close to 135-140 miles. Drinks like a ***** in London traffic but certainly turns heads.

I have an 07 RSVR with akro's on and switched to map 2.
On a sunday blast with the boys, on fast a and b roads, i have had the light start showing as low as 90 miles.
Generally though it is 110-115 miles before the light comes on.
On a motorway/dual carriageway i've gone as long as 135 miles before the light comes on. Either way whenever the light comes on i stop and fill up as soon as i see a station. The bike will only take 13 litres to the neck. So i still had 4 litres left. I reckon i would get 40 miles out of her with the light on. So theoretically i could get between 170 and 180 miles out of her when cruising at 80mph on a motorway. Not bad for a big v twin sportsbike.

My 2000r usually does about 120 but does drop to 100 ish with harder riding. However i once got 165 when out with my novice pal on his cbr6 but that was riding at nigh on car speeds! Mine has often done 30 miles on the light when ridden gently. One things for sure, when i wind open the throttle and revel in that growl, the last thing on my mind is mpg :biggrin

i've been getting about 100 to the light. was 115 in summer though, same journey. only thing i can think is i warm it up for longer when it's cold. Completely standard '01 model

As said, start stop in town, and a real thrash thru every gear will seriuosly deplete fuel, whereas an hour at a steady 120 is quite frugal
