What I'm trying to get to is, is he filling up by shoving £14 + into the tank and only getting 70ish miles range out of it.
Maybe something is put in tank stopping the full amount of petrol getting in.
Its either that or does he ride in the redline all the time.
I Won't say it’s a leak cos there would be petrol all over the place.

I've had anything between 125 and 175 depending on how I'm riding.

Typically 150 to the light.

Lowest I've had before the light came on was 95 miles, but I was enjoying myself . Usually between 130 and 150 miles.
