I'm across here with 'Long Tom' t'others are AWOL
There's also a recent newbie with an Xcountry 'DKF' on here
Saw 'Mr Smooth' riding his and went out and bought one
Theres a black x tank on ebay, would suit you down to the ground.
Happiness isn't ... a brimmed tank to fuel light on................... 108 miles
Brimmed?
Define?
Upright or on Sidestand?
Maybe the float is faulty? Mine comes on at 120 and I have fuel to 150 miles
Brimmed as in not another drop could've been put in, that was deliberate
Not interested in how economical it is, I'm interested in how far it'll go.
The answer, not very
I'll check how far before it runs out from light on but I'm not hopeful this bike will be any good for foreign travel
Hmm nice Dakar in the garage

Half an inch matters
One occasion did 140 miles on mine and on filling I'd had three litres left
N'uther occasion ran out at 110 miles
Half an inch makes all the difference

If it's the same fuel pump unit as the F650 you can apparently adjust the level when it activates. I need to sort mine as with the TT 11 litre tank on my Dakar the fuel light comes on after 35 miles.
My light usually comes on around the 110/115 miles, as it did this morning. Filled it up, 7.74 litres, so should be another 1.25 litres left before totally empty. This is with normal town and country riding. I have had it totally empty in 110 miles with spirited riding.
I now carry an extra 2 litre fuel canister, just in case
Tim, Your trying to get 21 litres of fuel range out of a 9 litre tank, going to be hard unless you like looking at grass growing as you ride.

Had a great thrash around in the sunshine on it today (Ange was at work and this was fit testing purposes only
Anyway, thought I put a pic up of today's mod for JB to give one of his excellent appraisals
