I hit reserve at 100miles pretty much everytime. Just depends on driving style. I think my riding lawnmower holds more haha

At the average MPG, a 20oz fuel bottle is good for approx. 10 miles. I carry 2-3 20 oz. fuel bottles with me most of the time. I leave them at home when I'm just commuting back and forth to work. Now that I have my new Wolfman E-10 saddle bags, I may just keep one in there all the time.
