Model 199 Fuel tank capacity

Featured Replies

Hi Chaps

Can anyone advise me here? I just entered the 2017 Michaux Dual Sport event, hoping to ride my 1978 Model 199 (assuming I can get my lights wired up!)... I rode this event last year on a DR400 which was fine, if not a bit hard work hauling 320lbs around.

My question is, can anyone tell me how many miles I can expect to get out of 1 full tank of gas? The bike has no mods, still using original Bing carb. The course consists of a 59 mile loop in the morning, refuel, and a 48 mile loop in the afternoon. Can I make 59 mile on one tank? Or will I need to find a refuel location on route somewhere??

Any advice/ideas would be gratefully received... TIA

Best I ever got out of mine in competition was 38 miles, before I hit reserve.
