Default low fuel light not working.

I just removed my baffles and my Sportster sounds great. While riding down the road I thought that I was getting really good mileage. I went up a couple of steep hills and my bike sputtered a couple of times so I decided to fill up the tank. I have a 4.5 gallon tank and I wound up putting in 4.24 gallons. I believe my fuel light should have come on at around 3.5 gallons usage but it didn't. Does anyone know what could be wrong? 2013 Sportster with 550 miles on it.
