Well, my 78k has about a 5 gallon tank. I assume yours will be close. If you are easy on the gas and things are in tune, you should get at least 40 mpg. So I would say about 150 miles before hitting reserve.
This, of course, depends on your average speeds and if you have a lot of stop and go driving. More stop and go = lower mileage.

If you hit reserve by 100 miles, and you ride smoothly, then your carbs are not tuned right and are too rich.
The ride IS the adventure. The destination is just to get gas!
