03 K1200RS w/fuel consumption issue

[Bubbadozer]

Rode the bke yesterday and remember last time i rode, it was just below 2/3 tank. After riding about 30 miles yesterday, I look down at gauge and see it is at 1/4 with only 105 miles since fill up. I did a visual check by opening filler and loking and doing a slosh test, and it sounded like it was almost out as well. WTH? Bike has been running good otherwise. Only difference between last fill up and most recent is, that the recent fill up was at Costco with premium and last like most other fillup's is at a local place that sells ethanol free premium I usually buy. No leaks, or strong smells. Stumped. Any ideas??

 

Thanks,

 

Scott

Bubbadozer,

 

Recent conversation on this very thing over on I-BMW: '03 K1200RS fueling and mileage

 

Hope this sheds some help on you.

Ride more, get data.

I got from 100 to 175 miles before my low fuel light came on, depending ton the type of riding, and altitude. '03 GT.

My light was calibrated for consistency apparently, as it came on w/X amt of fuel remaining regularly.

 

Any other work done recently?
