Default Gas Mileage

Just wondering what sort of mileage you guys get to a full tank. I get some where around 180-190kms (113-120miles) before the fuel reserve light comes up. Is that okay? all my other bikes got way better gas mileage. Everyone I ride with gets around the 235-240kms mark. I do alot of town commuting only 1st 2nd gear stuff, does this take up lots of fuel? My bike only has a scorpion pipe.
What do you guys get?

I get anywhere from 120-155 miles before the light comes on depending on the riding. Average is about 140 miles before the light pops on

if your in stop and go traffic alot your going to have less mileage because the bike is just sitting there running while you sit at light after light.

Thanks guys, I mostly ride in start stop traffic so maybe thats the reason for my mileage. Any way I guess thats the price of owning a 929.

it's well worth it though. I love my 929. I was getting about 140 150 until I started clutching it up a couple years ago and now I get maybe a 100.
