Hi Guys.

Can somebody tell me what the fuel capacity is for a Z1000B3/4 and how far they would expect to travel on a full tank?

Cheers Guys

How far depends on how you ride and where - town or mway.

I'd be looking for a petrol station after about 100 miles, but then I don't like to risk not be able to find another and then running out.

Ran out once and those old Zeds are bloody heavy beasts to push :shock:

Agreed used to look for a refill around the 100 mile mark
Life shouldn't be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, cigar in one hand, beer in the other, body used up, totally worn-out and screaming, "WOO HOO, what a ride!"

Gus,

The distance travelled to a tank will be directly proportional to what gear ratio you have chosen!!

I hope that has helped!!
