How many miles to a tank of fuel?

(1/8) > >>

skikool:
I've just changed from a 2013 streetglide to a 2016 CVO but....

2013 103" had a range of well over 200miles (300 on one run!)
2016 110" Cvo in only getting 160 to a tank?

What does anyone else get? Can I improve it?

n8schmitz:
2016 CVO SG and I am getting well over 200 to a tank.  I have RH Slimlines and the FP3. Stock otherwise.

All my bikes with 110 motor have been able to go over 220 on a tank.

My 2017 I have gone overhear 230 several times on a tank

Cvostu:
I can go 200 miles plus if I take it easy. . Buy it goes quick when I dump a tank full at 85mph. About 175 miles when I do that. . The guys that go 250 on a tank aren't going as fast as I am. . Stuart.

Instead of trying to compare miles per tank, what exactly is your fuel consumption in miles per gallon?  When you do stop for fuel, how many gallons does it take to fill up?  The reason I ask these questions is that this subject has come up many times before, and in some cases people have been going strictly by the "miles to empty" reading versus keeping detailed records of miles and gallons used.  Those miles to empty readings can vary all over the map.

With a six gallon fuel tank, 40 mpg should give you a range of 240 miles.  If you ride conservatively, even a 110 SG should be capable of as much as 50 mpg.  If your mileage is worse than 40, perhaps you're riding that 110 like you stole it?

My point is there are too many variables for anyone to really give you a definitive answer.  As the ads say, your results may vary. ;)
