Your tank is 10 gallons capacity, so you should be able to get about 100 miles out of a tank.  Hope this helps...

I ride a '97 Formula 583 that appears to be getting about 10-12 Miles per gallon so a full tank gets me about 100-125 miles down the trail. Not a big deal if you know where the next town is but the UP can be tricky sometimes while riding in new areas. The sled can achieve about 15 MPG if you ride at a mild pace. For me...I mostly get the 10 MPG! :D
