I get 40 mpg on back roads Wide open on the highway (70-80 mph) I get around 35 mpg. With the tank I fill up on 120miles either way to be safe. So far haven´t had to hit reserve.

So converting using the 120miles / .6 you should get 200km per tank.
Remember, even though the manual lists it as 4.1 gals with .5 gal reserve you don´t get the full 4.1 gals. That is just the Volume of the tank. The tank is close to 3.6 when full - .5 gal reserve leaves approximately 3 to 3.1 gals to run. Hence 120 miles or 200 km. Enjoy!
