Hi all,

Does anyone know how many miles/km you can get once the fuel empty starts flashing?

cheers

I did 60 km, I was a bit scared to go over this point.

Can't seem to find the exact amount in the owner's manual so it's probably best not to go over the tested 60 km.

The manual states tank capacity is 14 liters. I add gas just when fuel empty starts flashing and maximum I do is 10 liters. So fuel reserve is 4 liter. At the average mileage of 25 KM per liter so the reserve should be 100 KM !!!

I ran out in the drive way after doing just over 50 km on reserve, averaging 4.8L/100Km. This suggests a 2L reserve. I could only then just get 12L in my tank? But I was filling up to the bottom of inner cup. I think the tank has 2L of wasted 'breathing' space. I can comfortably get 250km out of the bike when I ride as hard as I like around town.

On the highway or being super gentle I've gotten 300KM - 3.8L/100KM. But I brim it now too.

That's pretty darn impressive and some valuable information right there

According to the Yamaha specs, reserve is 2,7 liters (0,71 US gal, 0,59 Imp.gal).

I went 55 km on the reserve, but I still could not get more than 11,9 litres into the tank.

I hope no one here is going to make it a habit to run till its low, best thing to do is aim to fill up once it reaches 1/4, anything less is pushing it.
