2000 sxr 700... still havent had much time to ride this season, but going on first big trip next weekend... this is my first year with sled, everyone says these redhead tripples great on gas..... assuming sled is properly tuned, what can one expect to get out of a tank of gas? i think its a 10.5 or 11.5 gallon tank. I understand different riding styles, but just nice groomed trails for the day, how many miles should a properly tuned sxr 700 get per tank? im not sure if my gas gauge is correct or not, but I filled up and put 65 miles on it last week, and my needle just hit the 3/4 tank mark....that was 65 miles for a quarter tank, no way do i expect to get 260 miles out of a full tank so i imagine these sleds gas guages stay on full longer then they should..LOL
