Great thread with some excellent information. I'm new here and recently picked up a used 2015 FX. My first offroad range test yielded a result of 5 miles. The battery was still fine, but I snapped the chain landing a small jump as I grabbed a fist full of throttle. That was a long push back to the parking lot. 
I have since done the chain conversion, which was a PITA but worth it. I bought this bike for the stealth aspects, as I live in California and don't always want to haul the bike to a proper park to ride. So far, I love the bike. I'm a big guy, so the first thing I did is have the suspension resprung. It's not perfect, but it is a lot better than it was.
