The last 300 miles on m GS at 65mpg have been unavoidable, and mind numbingly boring !!!
Which is why mine barely gets mid 40s mpg.

I remember back in the 70s there was a heavyweight cruiser called a Laverda (1000cc Triple) which had the tank filler cap situated in a corner of the fairing which meant that you could re-fuel without disturbing the tankbag and I wish that BMW had developed a similar system for the GS.
All this talk of 63mpg and huge distances between refuelling makes me wonder if I'm riding the same bike. I rarely get better than around 40 odd mpg and usually see the warning light come on around the 140 / 150 mile range. I do use the acceleration but rarely cruise at high speed as I don't do too much motorway travel these days.....

How did you get the WC clocks to work on your hexhead ?
Is it a difficult mod to fit ??
How low can you go ?
I thought Id better fill up [ 1200GS LC] - 186 miles and 13.46 liters to refill worked out at 62,8 Miles/Gallon [wiki states 20 litres]
Mine will run dry with 8 litres remaining. I’ve wondered about a second fuel pump. I have enough spares.
