Default Mileage

I am in Alberta Canada and get about 161kilometres before the warning light. How does that compare to everyone. We are approx 3200 feet above sea level.

I get about 160 miles before the gas light comes on and that's riding it moderately hard ... you sure you got it set for km's?

I can usually get about 160 miles also on my 600. That would be about 257 kilometers.

My low fuel light comes on between 120 and 130 miles, about 34-35 mpg. My 600 F3 was good for 190 miles before switching to reserve, about 50-52 mpg.

I'm in Ontario, Canada and my CBR 1000RR gets about 210km when the gas light comes on,... but it also depends on how hard you are riding.

you guys are all compairing different bikes with different riding styles and all that comes into account...i'm sure the tank on the '93 1000 is larger than that on a 600RR and not to mention probably redlines at around what 10Grand...600RR doesn't even make any power below 10Grand...apples oranges bananas and grapes here people...but this is all just my 2 cents...i've gotten between 120 & 160miles between yellow lights also at various elevations
