I tend to top up in fivers as I don't go far and wide, but generally get about 60-70 miles running it as close to i think empty.

I never got more than 120 out of a tank on the K5 pointy.

Not hanging about but it was while commuting on the motorway so was a steady pace.

The daytona makes the sv look almost frugal in comparison though. lol
