749 Tank Range Hi Guys, What sort of range are you getting out of a full tank on your standard 749, mine is going into the dealer later in the week to be re-tuned, but I was wondering whether it is a bit thirsty or not? I am getting the light come on at 70 to 80 miles and working it out, will run dry at 110 to 120 miles. This is general riding including motorway cruising.:confused: |
I would guess that is thirsty. My 999s has a 67mm Leo Vinci exhaust system,ecu and DP air filters. Been dyno'd at 145bhp at the back wheel and my fuel light comes on at pretty much 85 miles every time. |
It does sound as if the bike is using a lot of fuel,.....are you sure its up to the brim when you fill up? Mind you,those fuel level sensors can be a bit hit or miss. As a comparison,my 999S with assymetric system will do,on average,100 miles before the light comes on.If I'm 'trying',I can get the light on at around 75 miles.:devil: |
I get about 100 miles from my 2005 749s, general roasd use. |
Sounds about right, that's what I used to get. |
always 80-85 miles 749s 54mm full system and chip |
Thanks Guys, sounds like it is a bit thirsty I just wanted an idea so I can tell the dealer when I take it back, it is cutting out on tick-over and also backfires around 4000 rpm, so they are going to re-tune. Will let you know the result. |
Hmmm. Mine cuts out on tickover sometimes, usually when at the lights next to a moped... Look like a right tit. Regards Mark. |
100 miles fuel light comes on - 2004 749s standard exhaust |
999s with asymetric termis - anything between 85 - 115miles when the low fuel light comes on. You will get quite a low figure if you dont brim it when you fill up. I always sit on the bike holding the bike absolutely vertical (hell I sometimes get fuel coming out the overflow when I park it back on the stand). Do you fill it up on the sidestand? |
