24.8 from me before I was free wheeling down the hill to the petrol station. Brimmed it at 16.9 litres too just as the manual says (17l tank)

At hitting Over the 20 Mile mark it is start biting your nails, sweating and hope that you can see or know for sure that a open Petrol Station is coming up real soon.
This was a much debated topic on other old (dead forum) especially in the early months after the June 2016 release.
it maybe Slightly difference if your F-Trip flashes and comes on when riding compared to at 1st switch on after sitting leaned over on the (KICK for USA folk) side stand as the fuel level will not be level. I switch my bike on with me on board it and held up level.
25 miles plus or minus 3 miles or so was the kind of an agreeable experiences norm / Medan.
Or 20 to 25 minutes riding if lucky at a steady easy 60 mph riding.
Hope that this helps.

I usually rate it at 20 miles, any further has my backside doing a rabbits nose impression, so far my earliest for the F counter was just below 80 miles, That was a fun day.

I too get twitchy at anything > 20 miles, as I get visions of pushing the beast and I pray for downhills, lol.

So far i've only had the stones to go to 26miles with the E symbol flashing.
However on the odd occasion it flashes E saying I need to fill up then 5 mins later its goes back to 2 bars or 1/4 of tank full. Very odd.

Reason for this ^ is you have switched your bike on whilst it was leaned over on the side-stand, and this E is a false low as the fuel will have flowed over to the left-hand side of the tank away from the fuel gauge, then upon straightening the bike up the fuel level rises back up at the fuel gauge/meter.
Therefore, if the E flashes starts flashing as you have being riding along for some time it is more a true reading that the fuel is well down.
I switch my bike on with the bike upright i.e. lifted up off sidestand

38 odd mpg... that’s the normal score.
