dont really know, shouldnt think a reserve tank would keep you running for long, just long enough to get you to the nearest garage Laughing

Thats generally what you should do, also with an older bike you should avoid running it right down incase some dirt/crap gets pulled through the fuel lines.
Should do you 20+ miles or so, depending on speed.
