Residual range The residual operating range is
only displayed when the
reserve level is reached. It is
determined on the basis of the
previous riding style and the
available fuel.
If the motorcycle is resting on
its side-stand, the level in the
tank cannot be measured
correctly, so this estimate of
residual operating range will
be inaccurate.The Tripmaster registers that
