Tank Size

'80K -- how big is the tank? Manual says 20 litres but I don't believe it.

I know I could run it dry to discover but this is much easier.

anyone? Bueller?

Well my 78k tank is 5 gallons, about 19 liters or so I think. So it very well could be 20 liters or just under.

The ride IS the adventure. The destination is just to get gas!

20 liters is right. it doesn't seem like a lot, but try emptying the tank into a 5 gallon gas can one day and you'll realize it holds more than that. That's what I did :)

I'll risk a further ride one day . . . I know 20 ltr is the common quote . . . it's just that it "looks" empty and when I fill I get just over 10 ltr in . . . that extra 10 must be hiding somewhere!
