    Hi everybody!

    I´d like to know about the 950 SE:

    -. Range in Km. on-road (highways at legal speeds 65-70 mph, or 100-120 Km/h).

    -. Range in Km off-road. (Aprox.)

    -. Weight in Kilos (dry and full ), and how much weight I could save with a pair of Akras.

    Thank you so much.

    I get about 140 to 150km I am sure you could do a lot better if you don't suffer from wrist lock:lol3

    I average about 160 Km before reserve with another 30 Km available on reserve. This is a combination of city, highway and offroad riding

    Fuel light came on at 155 km after a mix of dirt road and freeway.

    I haven't weighed it yet.

    Bob, I think you'll find that these blokes are talking about range of their SE's. They have a much smaller tank than your ADV.

    The Akras on my 950Adv weigh nearly 14 lbs (total) less than the OEM's.

    Anybody measured how much usable fuel the SE carries?

    I haven't run mine completely dry yet.

    I ran my SE dry last week and had done about 120 miles. All on tarmac.
    I have done over 90 miles all offroad-ish without the reserve coming on.

    But even when I had to push it about a mile home last week I was still smiling.:D

    Great bike, buy one!!!!

    The Akras will save you just under 6kg.
