My standard Italian GP200 tank has approx. 2.5 litres reserve, but this can easily be altered by adjusting the length of the feed pipe in the fuel tap.

according to :-
- the sil manual for the gp tank capacity is 8.1 litres including 0.75 litres reserve
- the innocenti manual for the gp tank capacity 1.78 imperial gallon with 1 3/4 pints reserve
1.78 imperial gallon is 8.1 litres
1 3/4 pints is 1 litre
if my conversion memory serves me right

Depends on how short your reserve pipe is but it's very easy to test just drain fuel into a container and then measure it from when you turn the reserve tap on until tank is empty

...i get about 10-15 miles at a light throttle....i always run down to reserve then refill....try a run on reserve and carry a fuel can to see how far you can go....
