Like the f4, my old bike didn't have a fuel gauge so to keep track of how much gas I had I would reset the trip meter after I filled up, that bike got a little over 100 miles per tank so when the the trip meter was at 0 miles I had a full tank; 50 miles meant a half tank; and 100 miles meant it was almost empty. Anyways, I recently got an f4 and I want to use the trip meter as a fuel gauge on it but I don't know how many miles per tank I get and for obvious reasons I don't want to run my tank dry just to find out. So for anyone who owns or has owned an f4, how many miles per tank do/did you get? (roughly)

 

At the possible risk of you getting like a 100 views and only one or two replys, let me answer you (as for my blade anyway) I get 250km (155 miles) out of my 18 litre tank riding normally.

I see the F4's have the same capacity tanks as the 900 blade so I would think you should get a few more miles from a tank than the blade...?

 

I get about 130 before I start looking for a pump, I would suggest starting at 100 miles and when you fill up shake your bike/tank and listen to it, next time 110, and so on and so forth. I can get 150 if I haven't been rideing like a fool all day I haven't tryed more than that

 

If it helps - we did a test on the low fuel light when we cleaned the inside of the tank and the fuel tank filter.

Started with an empty tank - switch on ignition and wait for low fuel light to come on.
Switch off ignition - add 0.5ltr fuel - switch on ignition - wait for low fuel light to come on.
Repeat above until light stays off.
We got 4 ltr in with light still comming on - at 4.5ltr the light stayed off.

 

So about 1.25 gallon? My conversion is prally a little off. That's good to now deano,

 

I would play safe and assume you have a gallon left at fuel light on

 

I do 132 miles of fairly regular riding before I fill up and only end up putting about 15 litres in so I would say unless really going for it you'll see at least 140 miles

 

I'd agree around 140 miles will be right for average commuting- so far only filled up a few times and am due to do first full fill up as such and have covered 137 miles and light has not come on as yet.

I know the light does come on as was brightly lit as I left the showroom in Feb
when it was brought and then I put around 15.5 liters to fill up to the brim!

 

i get 150 all day regardless of riding conditions

 

Thanks for the help! To be safe I'll call it 130 a tank.
