You don't twist the right hand enough

Mileage varies -couple of peeps have got 200 out of a tank being really really careful. Most seem to be 100-140 last time this was brougt up

(I got 110ish on average)

Jesus! I was lucky to get 130 from the whole tank if I rode "like a complete and utter poof" as my mate put it. Most tankfuls lasted about 110 miles, and the light had been flashing for a while by then.

There's this control on the right handlebar that kinda twists round, go look for it and use it - report back with your findings.
