My calculation of the ~1 gallon reserve comes in from the average mpg from the 1st ~3 gallons over the course of time I’ve had my bike. @~150 miles on 3 gallons would be 50 mpg. It’s not totally accurate though and just a guestimation as the fuel indicator light doesn’t start blinking @ exactly 1 gallon of gas in the tank left. It blinks somewhere slightly over 1 gallon… maybe 1.1 or 1.2… can’t remember though…
