Miles per tank?
It's an 07 1200c with the 4.5 gallon tank. Pretty much stock cept for V&H slip ons. What kind of milage should I be filling up at? Will be doin a good mix of highway and city so just a rough ball park will do.
Does mine have a low fuel light?
The FI models don't have reserves on them correct?
Don't have my owners manual yet, last owner lost it and is ordering me a new one.
Thanks

I have a 2004 and can go 150 miles without hitting the reserve.
When I got my bike I constantly pushed the mileage a little by little between fill ups. It's nice to know how far you can actually go without guessing.

Yea, right. Unless you've mounted about a 12+ gallon tank.

Forget the low fuel light, they're worthless IMO. Set one of your trip meters to 0 every time you fill up and use it as a guide. With a 4.5 gal tank, if I'm running 80+ in the slab I figure fuel every 140 - 150 miles. If I'm cruising 55-60 I plan fuel around 180 miles. Both leave a bit of reserve fuel.
