I seem to recall mine got much better on motorways too.

Honda Al:
Thanks everyone. It's been a while since i rode a bike without a fuel gauge, let alone a manual reserve tank switch!!

Bryanj:
500 has got a reserve system, not that much tho

I was about to ask about the remaining "flight-time" on reserve with a 500 four...
On that "Stratocruiser" of an ST1100 I'm on about 1 hour/~100km/~60miles remaining once that pesky fuel reserve lights up...
Seems having to flick the fuel valve on the CB means to search for a water-hole like NOW!?

  I just went for a ride out,almost exactly 10 miles per litre,

as far a reserve in concerned,its about 4 litres,so ride carefully for up to 40miles plus .

and for the first time I used satelite tracking app,Realrider,to cover the ride,
