Tank range?

If you stay above 3rd gear 95 of the time 200 will just hit F-Trip at the 185 - 190 mark. I'd plan for 150 mile fuel ups if the speeds are above 55 most all of the time.

Its the stop and go and being in 1st/2nd for extended times that cuts the MPGs down!
Have a Safe ride!

To the OP - I am comfortable taking it to 30 miles on "reserve." With that said, if your trip does not include any gas stations over 30 miles apart, well... you get the idea. For reference, here is some info I'm putting together of my fillups.

Just remember when "F-Trip" comes on your instrument cluster you have aprox a gallon of fuel left. For the FZ6 that's anywhere from 40 to 55 miles before you are dry.

I wouldn't mind pushing it 30 miles as long as I knew there was fuel ahead.

I usually stop at 175 to 200 miles depending on where my fuel stops fall. I have all that punched into my GPS program and uploaded to my GPS before I leave so I usually know where I'm going to stop for fuel ahead of time.

I'll be using a tomtom one V3 with European maps on,can I do that with mine it would be a great help if i could.

Cheers

Exactly... don't panic just because the F-trip starts blinking!
Just don't push it too far if your doing mountain runs with 40kg of holiday luggage!
