Here is mine, just got the bike this year. 2001 GSXR-600 has 37,000km on it.
(eveyrthing is metric because i'm in canada)


For quick reference.

37,000KM = 22,990 Miles
272KM = 169 Miles

Damn... are you an accountant?? :P

I get about 120+ before the light comes on. Keep in mind that i might be a just a tad aggressive when riding.

Damn I'm glad I ride the way I do 155-165 before the light starts to blink. I heard the light goes solid when you get really low. I've never seen this before and rode on the blinking light for quite some time.

150 dead empty at intersection with just enough fumes to start it once and give it a good push to into the gas station.

108miles this last time around when the light came on. I nomally get around 30-35mpg This may sound crazy but the best mpg I have gotten so far was 53mpg when i took a 4hr highway day trip. I haven't seen anything close to that since but then again most of my riding is stop and go around the area.

On the '02-'03 models the light does not flash when it gets low. Only the '01 models.

Straight from the Haynes manual.

I get about 130ish, and the light don't blink it just goes on solid. But I know it's bad to ride on empty cause the fuel might burn out without fuel colling it off. Had that happen in my car.

As already mentioned it all depends on how you ride the bike, I filled up today, only had 92 miles on the clock but I've been riding her hard. Usually I get an average of around 140 Miles on a full tank.

I usually average around 130 to the tank. More if I lay off the throttle. Vice versa.

i get about 10-150 before the light comes one. and it takes about 3.9 gallons to fill from that point. I forget what the total tank capacity is now that i think about it...anyone know..o3 750
