RE: 1200 Custom 4.5 gal gas tank range
Never gone more than 120 on my 3.3... Don't see the point... Or the need...

Pick a number that is well before empty.... And make that your maximum... Pushing it to the limit is just stupid

my 07 , with stage one and pipes, goes about 135 when the light comes on , i have pushed it to almost 150 and then filled up. probably about a half gallon left in her at 150. on hard acceleration from a light , with not much gas, she purps and cuts out!

RE: 1200 Custom 4.5 gal gas tank range
I have a 2008 XL1200L Sporty\\\\\\\\\\\\\\;
My light comes on and stays on around 130 miles\\\\\\\\\\\\\\;
I fill up shortly thereafter since I don't fancy the idea of running out\\\\\\\\\\\\\\;
It usually holds approximately 3.1-3.3 gals depending on how long I wait to stop for fuel\\\\\\;
Added note - I'm getting an average of 50 MPG
