    Have done a forum search but nothing really specific comes up.

    I pick my wide glide up this week, and am wondering what the fuel range will be, I know

    theres a lot of factors involved, but from what I have seen here, suburbia/commuting to work 200ish k's? and

    country riding up towards 300k's?

    cheers in advance

    all to do with speed and gear selection, highway riding I get over 300 easy, thats in 6th most the time at about 110 - 115kph round town high 200's (due to pulling away at lights etc (read going faster than I should) as for filling them up I have not once got the amount of fuel in my ride that they say it holds, and I have also not once run it out of fuel (have been close a few times) it all comes down to how you ride if your going hard you will run through the gas real quick, if you have a head wind this will cost you some mileage as well.

     

    PS thats with a open air cleaner and V&H sideshots and a TTS
