I've just had 347.3 miles out of a tank of gas, with 7 to go, according to onboard ... before putting 31.5 litres of BP Ultimate in ... so on-board was probably wrong ...
How far without stopping?

If you are running from TheStig he will catch you as he get's better mpg and besides he carries an extra jerry can full of fuel..........

Just finished another tank of fuel:
95 RON
353.1 miles on trip, onboard indicated empty for last 1.5 miles (I was a little nervous for the last three miles of the M3 to my local Esso).
just put in 31.7 litres (brimming) for £38.01.

I used to do this on my F650CS - only on long distance sections on M-ways though. It does help easy the muscles off both your legs and arms as it changes their position too.
Suspect it is the sort of thing you can only really do on bikes with an upright riding position.
I did 46 mpg on a reasonably fast run ........... mine must have been a reasonably faster run.....
....
did 400 mile across Germany/Belgium/France before fuel light came on.
favorite was, riding at an indicated 80 in Sweden, I did 320 miles in just over 4 hours.
(41 litre TT tank
)
guess you mean in the South East only though !

Did 371 km of hard riding on gravel road on my old 1100 GS on a single tank, up the Dempster Highway to Eagle Plains, Yukon Territory. Fuel light was on for quite a while before I reached the gas station. (I did have a spare can of fuel with me, just in case)
This doesn't sound like much, but considering the bike was loaded, (about 440kg total weight, including me), this is pretty decent.
This is of course no match for the higher fuel efficiency and capacity of the newer GSA models.

No worries. Offence already taken.
It was actually a very nice and dry (and fast) trip from Whitehorse and up to Innuvik and back to Dawson City. The crap weather didn't start (again) before I entered Alaska. Found mud stuck in odd places four years later, but I am sure that is just because of my reluctance to cleaning the thing.
