2018 Yamaha Bolt r-spec
#13
In my 12 days of ownership I have traveled 805.6 miles (did not log first ~200) on 14.013 gallons = 57.5 average MPG. If possible to run 3.4 gallon tank dry, that would be 195.5 miles. 150 miles should be reasonable range.
The farthest between fuel stops in my riding has been on the extraterrestrial highway, between Ash Springs and Tonopah: 154 miles.

Miles Gallons MPG
59.1 1.137 52.0
61.4 1.008 60.9
46.9 0.881 53.2
122.9 2.202 55.8
79.5 1.544 51.5
99.8 1.784 55.9
89.2 1.417 62.9
101.9 1.652 61.7
87.7 1.413 62.1
57.2 0.975 58.7

805.6 14.013 57.5
I put a Dart Marlin fly-screen on my Moto Guzzi V7II, CB1100 and Triumph Street Twin.
No inclination to do so on the Bolt.
The low seat puts wind above my shoulders.
Coming down highway 89 from Utah 14 to Jacob Lake, we had headwinds/winds from 2 oclock gusting to 48 MPH.
I could feel some buffeting, but not uncomfortable and the bike was VERY stable.
After 77 miles of that, went to North Rim, Point Imperial and back to Jacob Lake (110 miles) for a total of ~400 miles yesterday...624 miles total trip, Mon-Tue.
