Finishing decorating the front room whilst enjoying a weekend of motorsport

F1, Motogp, WSB

I'll probably be out on the pushbike at some point as well, and take the GSXR for a spin

Worst I've had when enjoying myself was 85 miles to the fuel light
Average is 120 miles to fuel light
Best I've had was 160 to fuel light

Sounds good for such a fun bike. I keep getting 70 miles to the solid (it flashes first) fuel light, that's a bout £13 for 70 miles. Fair enough that's near redline everywhere but surely there's somehting wrong? Restrictor kit maybe?
