gas cap
Nice but mine only has regular caps , no electrical hook-ups . I thought they might make some sort of floater device under the cap . I guess that's not hi-tech enough these days . Thanks tho .

Just re-read your post and my pre-edit post made no sense. In my experience, the gas gauges aren't the most accurate anyways so just resetting a trip meter or something after each fill up would work better. Just my opinion though, take it or leave it.

On the bikes I have had over the years, the trip meter, and occasionally the need to switch the petcock to reserve were my warnings for a nearly empty tank.

Mine says it's on reserve when the tank is still over half full. How hi-tech is that? I go by the trip odometer.

Thanks for all the input . I ran out of gas put it on reserve and made it about 1/4 of a mile . I thought maybe it was stopped up on reserve . I took it apart and found no problems . I still can't figure out why I could'nt make it another 20 or 30 miles at least . I thought maybe a
gauge would help .
