"reserve" capacity

[RDWII]

Specs say 6.6 gallons, but my light comes on about 110 miles. Seems too early. One day I plan on taking some fuel with me and draining the tank. But, for now, what say you?

Ball park over all my :

998's--Start looking for gas at 150. Most put in was 5.8 gallons at 180 miles.

1330's--Start looking for gas around 200. Most miles driven on one tank--215. Don't remember the gallons.

Your range has a lot to do with the dance that your right wrist does with the loud grip...
Once you've found the effective range of your bike; just use the trip odometers to keep an eye on things...

NONE !!!....., in the old days gas tanks on bikes had a fuel shut-off that also included a so-called reserve if you turned the petcock as bit further.......I miss that feature, because there was no guessing when you needed it .............Mike

I just bought a new rs, rode it 130 miles home from the dealer, and around town, I was down to one block, I had 175 miles on it and put 4.75 gallons in, that left me 1.5 gals or 33.8 mpg.

That sort of mileage, is about what can be expected.
