Did 300 miles on motorway recently.
Got around 240miles a tank just before hitting reserve and was cruising at 80-85 MPH (Keeping up with flow of trafic I might add

).
I was fully loaded with the missus and camping kit, tent, sleeping bags etc etc and I found that I had plenty of grunt left to overtake without dropping a gear and also found that the ten wasn't screaming at me.
I also have high front fender and did not experience any overheating.
I was actually supprised at how well it did!!
Hope that helps ya.
Cheers
