HELP! anyone have a gas gage problem?
I recently filled up my bike with gas and been riding around with it and noticed the gas gage always showed full. I got home and checked the tank and it seems almost empty. Another time out and i would be pushing her home. Anyone have this problem or a fix?

Haven't seen that yet. Done any work on it recently? Maybe a connector came loose.

one of the options on the dash board is to show you how many miles you have remaining. anyway, if the bike is not working why not take it back under the warranty option

A guy here in St. Louis, MO just got his back from dealer last week due to the same problem his guage just stopped reading correctly. I'll ask what the dealer said the fix is.

Never rely soley on the guages. Learn how many miles you average per tank and reset one of the trip meters every time you fill. Old habit from cruisers with no guage. When you get that antsy feeling check your mileage.....TB

Yup for the time being thats what i'm using trip meter thanks for all the help. The dealers are pretty busy right now so will wait until later on in the season to take the bike in.
