Default 650 owners...how far on a tank of gas???

Hey guys...........I did noy buy this for fuel economy and could care less about the mileage but how far (miles wise) are you getting out of a tank of fuel.The reason I want to know is if I need to carry fuel or not on my next ride.We sometimes ride 80 miles.

80 miles will definitely require an additional fillup. I rode 30 miles just the other day with a variety of trail mix (hills, rocks, hard pack and mud) and was down to half a tank if that tells you anything.

I get between 100 and 110 km's per tank with equals out to about 60 miles. My gas light comes on around 90 km's.

Did 58 easy miles yesterday (fairly flat, 2x4 99% of the time) and was waiting for my fuel light to turn on. I also had the tank filled to teh VERY top when we started. I WOULD carry extra fuel, it is no fun running out of gas in the outback!
Godd luck

50-65 miles, depends on conditions. Carry a "fuel pak". They are available at Rocky Mtn. ATV, Dennis Kirk, etc. online.
