What the fuel numbers tell you

Tank size is not identical across all supplied years: capacity runs from 6.1 US gal (23.08 L) to 6.13 US gal (23.2 L).
Reserve fuel is listed separately for at least one model year. Reserve is part of the total fuel capacity, not extra fuel on top of the tank capacity.
Estimated range is calculated from the listed fuel-consumption figure and total tank capacity for the same model year. It is not a guaranteed real-world riding range.
A full tank of gasoline adds roughly 37.9 lb (17.2 kg) to 38.1 lb (17.3 kg) of fuel mass using an estimate of 0.745 kg per litre.
The representative 6.11 US gal (23.14 L) tank is larger than the median among the 388 Kawasaki motorcycles in this dataset. The comparison-group median is 4.15 US gal (15.71 L).

Fuel-capacity & range note

Motorcycle specifications can vary by model year, market and equipment. Fuel capacity is a nominal published figure, while calculated fuel weight and range figures on this page are estimates derived from the supplied specifications. Real-world fuel economy and range vary with speed, riding style, load, weather, terrain, tune and fuel level. Confirm critical specifications in the owner’s manual or on the official Kawasaki website.
