My light stopped working about 4 years ago.

I can go 170 before I fill on a 96 M900

I usually fill at 150 and it will take about 3.5 gals.

Never road bone dry but did do 136 or 137 miles.  Would like to do it at least once and see what happens.

about 110 mi when the light comes, so the same as most on here - usually go another 20-30 mi before gassing up and have never run out

Monster 695 Stock got about 120 before the light came on. 

Now my 1098 gets about 90 before the light comes on  [laugh]

I usually get right at 150 miles with 3.2 gallons per fill up.

I never go more than 150 miles before filling up, except for once when I did let it run out at 172 miles. My tank will hold a little more than 4 gallons. (2000 m750).
Is it June yet?

110-120 before light comes on depending if all highwya or not.. then i know i have around 1 gallon left at 45mpg... made it up to 154 before refilling once and put in 3.0 gallons, only 0.25 was left in the tank about.. so it was time.. that was all highway riding too.

I got 200 once on my '00 M750 (while desperately praying to the spaghetti monster for a gas station)

My '97 M900 gets 120-130'ish but I haven't pushed it...that's just when the light comes on.

I'm a skinny chick, so YMMV.

Light comes on at ~130 miles. I've run it to 155 once and I thought it must be almost bone dry. Filling up after 140 miles I can get ~3.2 gal.

120ish on a stock '07 695.
Pushed it to about 145ish with the fuel light on before refilling.

2005 M1000ds. About 80/85 to the light in the city. Long rides I have seen the light go on at around 135/140 sh.

08 s4rs full termi system w/airbox mod and dp ecu.

anywhere from 65 to 75 miles before the light comes on. I went almost 19 miles with the light on and it was on vapers. Put about 3.2 gallons in that day.

It's funny because it doesn't get much better economy on the interstate. I did the math and in town it's about 29 mpg. On the interstate it was about 31. Granted the run on the highway was about 45 min's of 90 to 110 mph.

I figure I would be very lucky to get 100 miles out of a tank. I run premium and am not shy with the throttle.
