hey everyone.This might sound like a stupid question but i just want to know how many Kms some of you guys get out of your bikes till your on reserve and then how many Kms you get on reserve? i only ask because my brothers Honda VTR250 and my dads Italian scooter(dont know how to spell it as there arent many in Aus ) kill my Xt660x on the long distance rides. I know the XT660x has only got a small tank compared to the bikes above but just want the reassurance that my economy is alright.I havegot about 270kms until reserve and the most i wanted to push it on reserve was 30kms.Any feed back would be great!

cheers Richo

I have owned a 04 XTX & own a 07 XTX they both have simular reserve level times. The fuel light flashes on/off around 210kms mark & stays on at 230kms, fuel runs out around 310kms on the open road & around town I get to 200kms & then 300kms then I walk.

normally get around 140-150 miles then the light comes on and the most ive done with the light on is 30miles as i didnt wanna have to push the bike

Plough on

Mine around 100 km until the light, then around 43 km until it dies. Yeah, 10l/100km. But I usually push it all the time. And the bike is open like a french cheese and have PCIII fitted.

I get about 200km then the light comes on and I have DNA stage 2 + de-screened air filter, cans and a PC3

I get 80-100 miles (120-150km) before the light goes on when commuting, and about 120-130 when riding the lanes.

I usually fit about 10-12L of fuel once it's on reserve, which means it must go on quite early.

I have four holes drilled in airbox, snorkel removed, DNA stage I and stage II filters, OTR 2in1 pipes + silencer, db killer removed, no catalytic converter in link pipe, nology hotwire cable, iridiumx spark, PCIII, O2 eliminator and lambda removed.

But from all of this, I think a PCIII map that crazy german have pre-programmed for me is the biggest fuel eater. I plan on connecting the PCIII to a PC to have the map saved and posted on forum for investigation. I would like to see can I have a same or nearly the same performance without such crazy fuel consumption (sometimes even above 10l/100km!!).
