Question - Full Tank of Fuel in ZX2R

Hi again,

Are there any ZX2R owners (1991 C model more specifically) out there who could tell me how long or how many Km's a full tank of petrol will last - Including reserve? Should be more than 150Km's right?

Cheers :)

How big is the fuel capacity, and how hard do you ring the throttle out?

From memory I used to get 200km+ even when I rang its neck on the road. I think the best I got was on a trip to Canberra which was around 250km. If your doing a track day take about 30 litres for a full day.

interesting to ask how many litres in a tank. i have noticed irrelevant to the size/capacity of the engine most real ninja's are thirsty buggers, usually get the 250+ a tank range but the capacity of the tank is an interesting aspect. Give another 950cc's and I get 230 to reserve depending on the abuse on 19 litres, hmmm????

Tank is 17 litres for a ZX2R I think......

I get about 230kms (without using the reserve) and then start looking for a Servo. I usually run on PULP

If I read right that is basically 1 kilometre a year? Must have been a demo bike that never got demoed.
