Default Best tank range achieved

I just got 185 miles out of a tankfull, and I wasn't really trying. (Apart from the last 5 or so miles )
Whats the most anyone else has got out of their bike?

105 on the last one

Wasn't the longest lasting tank but the memory will last!

Stretched it to 189 miles. Most of the tank was on mway at about 90, last 60 miles on the A6. I think 250 would be possible if you really tried.
