big tanks..

[conbread]

hey guys just wondering how much time or how many miles do you guys get out of the 3.6-3.9 gallon gas tanks on these beast...

[USMC 500]

Really hard to say......depends on jetting, gearing, what terrain you are riding and how hard you're on it......

If I had to put a rough number to it (ROUGH).......I'd say about 60 miles of easy riding

did 120 miles on my bike coming down the ALCAN and still had more in the bottom.  15/47 w/ OD .  Zip Ty tank, 55-60 mph

i know on my yz250 with a stock tank riding it agressive it would go about 60 miles.... the bike i have coming has a 3.6 gal  zipty tank and was just wondering a round about estimate of what you guys out in the desert going hard was getting....

anyone ever run VIGINIA CITY,Nevada grand prix ,stock kx 500 1992 ,will I make two laps stock tank riding hard sideways and on one wheel? or I could run a large Ims desert tank 4.5 gallon and go for three laps before pit stop.

[ID KX500]

I've not seen a 4.5 gal.

If you are trying to win the big tank is the way to go.

If it is just for fun small tank is fine, you'll need to stop for a beer anyway so you might as well gas up too.

Either way good luck and have fun.
