Running on empty

Bikes Add comments

Oops… Ran out of fuel again on Saturday morning :(

Previously, while I was running the R1 in, I got 25 miles on reserve before the engine stopped (I did it once to figure out what the limit was), But it looks like the Akrapovics I put on have made a big difference. I ran out of fuel with 21.8 miles on the F-TRIP meter. Luckily, I was about 50 yards away from a Shell station, so it was only a short push, but it was a bit embarrassing!

    Haha. But it wheelie’s so beautifully when it’s got less in the tank (not that it’s difficult when full either!). I thought that orange light was a wheelie light :)
