How Far On One tank Of Gas?

[Tango]

I ask because I had to run the tank down in order to find gas. MUSHU went 235 miles before being filled up. He drank 5.5 gallons of elixir. :shocked: So I guess he had half a gallon left. Two lane back roads, 40-50 mph. :thumbup: Tom :spyder:

No two are alike. Get to know yours. Based on five different--the 998's will go about 180 miles before getting ready to give up the ghost. Mine--the refill light goes on between 140 and 150 miles. Close enough for me to get it filled up.

My 1330 will go an easy 210 before the light goes on. I have never pushed it beyond that.

A lot will depend upon that right hand. WARNING, WARNING, WARNING--your mileage may vary. :roflblack::roflblack:

Across the board--I get 31 average on the 998 and 40 average with the 1330.

As I pulled into the gas station last week the light came on at 260 miles

254

254 miles of smiles on my F3 before gassing up, and my yellow lite never came on... :yes:

Here is what I did on my trip. 45mpg when on eco mode. And travelling about 50mph

And second pic is when eco mode turned off. And doing about 70 to 80 mph.

I thought the F3s had a 7.1 gallon tank? So you would have had a gallon and a half left!

Something like that. Looks like I would of had about 2.9 gal left on the 46mpg one and 2.1 gal left on the 39 mpg one.

180 miles on the 998? :hun: I've never been close to that and I ran out of gas three times already.

:shocked: I think that you need to work on this a little bit... :joke:

Farthest so far with my 2014 RT-L: 236.4 miles, and the tank took 5.557 gallons.

On my 16 RT I get 34mpg.

Remember, ECO mode only affects shift points, so it has no affect on cruising mpg. (you can duplicate ECO simply by shifting earlier)

The 2016 F3 LTD has a 7.1 gallon fuel capacity, according to BRP.

7.1 gallons! :yikes: Wonder how much of that is usable to fill? Nice... :thumbup: Tom :spyder:

I don't much care how many miles I can get on a tank of gas. At about 120 miles I'm looking for a station where I can get off, stand up, walk around the bike a few times or get something to drink or nibble on while I fill up. That's just me, not into marathon rides anymore.:dontknow:

My wife and I took out first reasonably long ride Saturday. 153 miles round trip to Buellton CA for a Pea-Soup lunch. I used slightly more than 4 gallons, it worked out to 34 MPG for a mix of 70 to 80 freeway and twenty minutes of stop and go through Santa Barbara. That's carrying a 280 pound driver and a 135 pound passenger. The bike also only has eight hundred miles on it. Most of my riding is around town so it's hard to get decent mileage.

It took 5.8 gallons to refill that one time. I was almost sucking air. Read Warnings above. :thumbup:

PS. I am one of those CPA accountant types, and pretty much check my mileage at every tank full. I have a routine, but will not reprint it here. It's in the archives. See most any mileage thread. :yes::yes:
