210 miles before hitting reserve if I take it easy on the throttle. I usually fill up as soon as I hit the reserve and can take on almost exactly 4 gallons.

RE: How many miles on a tank?

It depends on if your Dyna has the Twin Cam 88 or 96.&nbsp\\; The 2006 Dyna Low Rider&nbsp\\;brochure gave an&nbsp\\;estimated mileage of 50 Hwy and&nbsp\\;44 City......yet the&nbsp\\;2007 brochures shows the same Dyna getting&nbsp\\;53 Hwy and 34 city.... City getting 10mpg LESS running the Twin Can 96!!!!&nbsp\\; My personal experience with my 2007, running STOCK everything, was an average of 48.5 mpg driving at 60mph on rural roads.&nbsp\\; Also the fuel capacity for the 2006 Dyna Low riders is 4.7, yet the 2007 shows 4.8
So, depending on what bike you have, the kind of weather conditions you're riding in ( hot, cold, wet, dry, windy, calm...., the roads, windshield or not..... it's going to vary quite a bit.

Gassed up Sunday afternoon showing 220.5 on the odometer of my '06 Wide, Stg.1, windshield, and crossing 2 mountain passes\\; one 5432-ft, the other 4500-ft. Took 5.1-gallons, so I just KNOW that I was on fumes. Had a 1-gal. jerry-can in the saddlebag, just in case.
