Miles Per gallon?
Ok, so i dont have an owners manual, but i picked up a repair one and couldnt find my Miles to the gallon, I thought my tank held about 5 gallons, but when i fill it up, the reserve comes on at about 75 mileswhich doesnt sound right at all.I dont know much about this bike yet... when the reserve bars come on, does that mean its on the reserve tank, or does that mean there is that much till the reserve? because the bars start blinking. anyway, any help is much appreciated as usual. thanks.

I got 150 before something went wrong and now I get only 115
svgrider, It could depend a lot on how you fill up or if your reserve indicator is faulty. So I'd say when the reserve bars pop up, go to the nearest pump and fill up 1 gallon. And reset the trip meter. That way you'll know almost exactly how much mpg you get. Even in city it should be upwards of 40mpg unless you ride at the redline.
