How my km should I be getting out of a tank?

Claire · May 15, 2014

I was wondering how many kms I should be getting out of a full tank in my rsv4 2012?
The fuel light comes on after 120km ... This seems awfully soon and as I am commuting on my ride I feel like I am living at the petrol station. Is this normal? My bike only just got its 10,000km service.

I saw 120 and thought ,that's normal, then realised it was km, that's bloody terrible!

I'm getting roughly 150 MILES to a full tank, do your maths and work out what the mpg is your getting.

always about 200k or more before the light comes on, occasionally 190k but that's when i'm having areal play with it

Decided to take her to the sick bay to find out what's happening. It is crazy only get 120 before seeing that Damn light pop up on the dash!
Fingers crossed it doesn't cost me too much

Do you have a prognosis yet?

So they it was my fuel pump. They put it on the dyno and it isn't regulating the pressure properly and is running rich. The part is going to take two weeks to come from Italy apparently so I'm bike less which is driving me crazy! On the bright side it is all coveted under warranty

Fuel pump has nothing to do with pressure regulating. There is separate pressure regulator attached to throttle body (left side). I would swap that first…

If fuel pump is damned, it will start to run lean instead rich since the pump cannot push enough pressure.
