    Hi guys

    does anyone know roughly how many miles the XL125 (carbed) will do to a tank?

    Hi Legacy

    I do the fill up to the top, ride and then fill up to the top thing again to work out the MPG and mine rarely ever fluctuates from 74MPG overall.

    Not sure how big the tank is on the baby V but I have got 200 miles from it.

    fill it, then run it to reserve/light then you will know how far you can go.
    if you want to know how how far you can go on reserve, carry a water bottle full of gas with you and run it dry. it wont hurt a carbed bike
