I have the touring tank, 6.2 Gallons believe, around 24 litres yes?
may have calculated wrong when a friend (on his R1100S) and I rode to Cooktown
and compared Mileage.
Same tank as me Jeff, Well tuned should pull 350 k's perhaps. Maybe a little more.
Mileage is all very subjective 'course.
Luggage, head wind, pillion, fangin' etc. I can drain a tank well under 300 in them thar hills.
