Dunno, not very often I ride at 70 except around town.

I have managed 120 miles from full to reserve on my 400/4. That is with what I call 'normal' riding, which to me is some town but mainly open roads up to about 70mph. If I ride her very hard I would I expect full to reserve to be about 100 miles.

I agree with Nurse Julie  - I get around 130 without going to reserve, including indicated 65mph cruising

I rarely run it into reserve, I look for a gas station for around 100 miles. If I do a lot of full throttle work it may run out by then. 466 kit, street cam.
