I get about 120-150 miles between the fuelup and low fuel light coming on ......... but it depends on how often I "really" get in the throttle  :D

I have recently picked up an '82 Magna V45. I have only checked the milage twice. First time I got just under 45 mpg, the second time was just under 48. Haven't done any in town stop and go stuff yet, still getting familiar with the bike and riding once again.  I guess it will be lower when I start doing the town thing. Haven't really cruised either, just back road stuff with in a twenty mile radius of the farm.
