It's got a 9 litre tank. I get to reserve (around 8 litres) at about 160 k's. I'm a bit of a nana though, it would use more fuel if you thrashed it.
Problems? Hmm.. Everything that was damaged in the rear-end was replaced (broken brake levers and scratched fairings mostly). Most of the bits weren't too damaged, so I bought them back off the insurance company - thus the two sets of fairings.
The top gear indicator light doesn't go. Cruising at moderately legal speeds you don't really need 6th gear anyway. I've never looked to see what the problem with it was, so it may be easy to fix.
The new fairings were only on the bike for a couple of weeks, but there are a couple of small scratches on the lower left hand side. I can get photos if you'd like.
The speedo is scarily optimistic. It reads 140 when you are doing 110-ish, but you get used to that.
The outer 15mm of the tyres are as good as new. As are the footpeg feelers
