It's good fun but bad for your pocket.i managed to get 70 miles untill the light come on, is that good or bad?

I've done less than that and I have done more than that. It's all down to how you ride and whether that's town riding or open roads.

I did 400 miles once to one tank of fuel
But that was a two gallon tank on a t80 !

Since when were you a soviet tank driver? And how are tank engines so economical?lloydie wrote:I did 400 miles once to one tank of fuel

I think mine got around 120-130 before my fuel gauge went to the red on its' last long run. That was all motorway as well

Re: fuel - miles - tank
Sadly the tank range on a VTR1000 is its bane, it drove me nuts on both my VTRs I used to get between 70-80, my friend gets around 90, My Honda Hornet gets around 90 miles to a tank.

Re: fuel - miles - tank
I passed my full bike test on it :-)
The rules said a "geared motorcycle "
Didn't say anything about a clutch :-)
