Low fuel

How far have you guys gone with the low fuel light on? It's likely in the manual, or in another post on here, but I'm really fucking lazy lol.

When the gas pump is on your gauge, you better gas up at the next station. End of story.

you got about a gallon in the tank when it comes on, so roughly 25-30 miles to be safe.

I always try to pull in immediately, but it's nice to know how much fuel is left.

On a stock engine with no mods (piston kit, stroked, gearing), u should get somewhere between 25-30 miles when the fuel lite comes on but if your engine is moded or you have your bike geared lower, ex: 1 tooth down in the front or up a couple or more teeth in the back, your gas mileage will be reduced drastically in exchange for the performance. Keep that in mind.

The manual says when the light comes on you have 1.1 gallons left.

I have driven 35 miles on mine, but I was on fumes when I filled up. First time I ever filled up for 5.6 gallons.

25-30 miles to be safe like everyone said....
