Ugh.....I have never been able to reset my trip meter while moving! But if you don’t reset it, good luck guessing when your tank is empty!
Today I averaged 10.5 L/100.... man I love this bike!

wait what? No fuel gauge? I thought that was just a ducati thing

I've got a technique using my index finger that works on a decent road, but not always on a bumpy one.

Hey, my F-150 does 13/100km, so pretty good by comparison.

You can, but resetting the trip means pushing the tiny little joystick straight in for a couple seconds. It's not stiffly sprung, so on the move it's easy to have it move to the side, which opens other options, like the track timing screen. I've gotten a lot better at resetting on the move, as stated above, but it's a lot harder when it's rough.

It's easier to just do it at the gas station, and I figure this is a good way to inspire me to not forget...

Not on the old ones, but I've heard the updated 2021 one might get a gauge.

People get all bent about it, but it doesn't bother me in the least. The bikes with fuel gauges I've used have been comically inaccurate, so a tripmeter reset becomes critical anyway if you're worried about where the next gas stop is.

What I don't enjoy is when the fuel light comes on, you'd best head straight for the closest gas station, as it doesn't give much more than 20 km to empty, and a lot less if you're caning it. I'm used to it now, but I cut it awfully fine the first few times.

Just seems to be an issue with resetting the trip meter. Honestly though, they block out a lot of the controls when you’re moving so there’s not a lot to use while riding.

LOL! And when the gas light comes on, apparently there’s only about 20-30kms before you’re out. Luckily I haven’t found out exactly when that point is yet....

Love it!
It is a smile-inducing machine. I’ve ridden none that were smoother.
Could ride through town and barely get out of 2nd.

The Two Bros. exhaust looks amazing. They tend to be on the louder side. How is it?

I haven't ridden one but I assume first should be good enough to get a 172 ticket on any road in the province, the rest of the gears just quiet it down. I was thinking the same thin about 2 bros, but that one looks like it has a lot of length so that's a nice change.

It’s a full system so it has a very nice growl to it. It’s not to bad and it doesn’t tick off the neighbours
