Have 650 miles on bike now. Decided to fill up Saturday, ride as much freeway as I can at 65-73 and try to use 6th as much as possible and use STD mode. Most of the freeway for this unscientific test were level 4 lane roads.
At first I thought my gage was broken as the
fifth element went off at 66 miles. I thought wow, I've got 4 more elements to go.
forth element turned off at 90 WTF? 24 miles
third element turned off at 102 double WTF 12 miles
second element turned off at 117 15 miles
first element started flashing at 130 15 miles
fuel mileage for test 135.3 miles 3.143 gallons so 43.04 mpg (not great but ok) .557 gal remained or good for maybe 23 miles or 158 miles total on tank.
Not picking on the bike just reporting an observation.
