How often on a Trip do you have to stop for fuel? this would be on the Rally model.

I have been riding for years and if I have learned anything in all those years is to stop and get gas way before you need it. Just my philosophy. I just bought my Rally and everything I have read says between 125 and 175 miles on a tank. Way too many variables to get a great estimate. If it were me, I'm going to be looking for fuel at 100 miles.

Given how wonky the fuel gauge is . . . I usually fill the tank back up as soon as it indicates that the tank is less-than-full.

I keep track of usage with the trip meter. I fill up around 140miles. I don’t know why you would drive normally in rally mode. Doesn’t provide any benefit on the road other than the occasional peel outs from a red light.

At my age, my bladder gets full before my tank gets empty! :D Seriously, I stop after 2 hours of riding or after 100 miles, which ever comes first.
