Default Mileage from one tank?

How much should I be expecting to get in a full tank and also how many miles left when the light comes on?

Does it make a difference with it being restricted?

Thank you

Depends how you ride. 120 to the light and another 20 or so reserve is a safe bet, but your results may vary.

172 and the light came on this morning.

But I fill it full, and I mean full.

I've never seen the solid light yet either.....
