More carb tuning this tank. Swapped back to original carbs and it is doing a lot better. Did not switch to reserve.

Switched carbs to NC24 carbs with sizeable velocity stacks, running richer jetting, plus aftermarket exhaust on now. Been a while since bike has been ridden, fuel poured out of carbs when first started, then stopped leaking. Riding fairly aggressively with little tucking. Switched to reserve around 241 km.

Forgot to punch in this fillup! Ran the friggin' thing nearly completely dry. Jetting experiments, carb sync(lots of idling), and aftermarket exhaust this tank. Switched to reserve at 252.0 km, then started running out of that fuel shortly after!

Faster paced group riding, not a whole lot of tucking, lots of random braking.

Most of this tank was run last year, last 15 km was lots of hard acceleration. Didn’t have to switch to reserve. Put gas stabilizer in. Corrected.

Don't know what kind of riding happened for the first 120 km, but next bit was fairly gentle riding with a good bit of tucking. No radiator blocking. Corrected.

First 60 km ridden by someone else. Washed bike and idled it some to help dry. Lots of good tucking this tank, no radiator blocking. Rode spiritedly with coworker. Did not switch to reserve. Filled with ethanol free gas. Corrected.

Older brother rode for significant portion of this tank, younger brother for other, and me for a little bit romping on it trying to tune away a mid range flat spot unsuccessfully. Carbs synced this tank, so lots of idling. Main jets are now 110 front 112 rear instead of 115 all around. Fuel tank taken off several times on this tank, losing fuel. Corrected.

Finally beat the NC30's gas mileage! Lots of 65-70 mph highway riding with serious tucking. incrementally blocked off about 1/3 of the radiator, now is showing proper temps. Corrected.

Stock gearing (15/45) for about 1/3 of this tank, 15/40 all else. Rear side fairing pieces missing for the entire tank. Coolant temp never really seemed to climb above 1/3, so I might either have a faulty thermostat, or I just need to block off some of the radiator. Some tucking, decent amount of P&G, but also a decent amount of full throttle runs. Was also wearing a gopro on top of my helmet for about 1/2 this tank. Corrected.
