I just filled my pointy up, reserve flashing at 123 miles, reserve light was solid at 146miles(2litres left?) i filled up at 148miles and brimmed it with 14litres, £19 exactly. Works out to 48mpg. I had replaced my front tire from the standard 60 profile to a taller 70 profile which apparently corrects the speedo inaccuracy of reading 10% more, so i'm guessing thats a true mpg figure now, as before tire change it averaged 52-55mpg.
