What kind of range on a Speed 4?

I was wondering what kind of range I should get out of a tank of gas on a Speed 4? I just picked one up yeasterday and haven't had a chance to run a tank out yet.

My fuel light normally comes on at 240km (155 miles) and after that I have about another 60km's to find a service station or start pushing........

about 129 miles every time til the light comes on. the best i dared get with the orange light on was 143 miles.

however a friends s4 gets 115/120 miles each time.

worst was 106 miles. some very spirited riding though...... ;-)

That's not too bad. That's about what I expected. I sure was hoping for about 175ish or so.

Thanks for the info.

my light comes on at about 120-125 miles. I usually fill it up with 3.5 or 3.6 gallons. so I get about 35 MPG. I do alot of WOT and usually end up riding against the wind alot of the time.

hmm that's alot. My fuel light goes on around the 180 km (or when driving city only around the 160 km)

i never try to push driving with the fuel light on. i don't like pushing my bike but mostly by that time i have around 14liters of fuel i have to tank. zo it would be like 1 liter to 12 km.

if you go fast enough, it's always against the wind
