I assume that you have an EVO with split tanks. The only gauges I've seen for EVO's is a Site Glass which is installed into the side of the tank. I've heard they are sometimes difficult to seal correctly and can sometimes leak.

Thanks guys I never run into any thing yet either but you never know lol. Yes its and Evo. Had bike bikes for 40 years and no gauge so I will keep on going by the mileage haven't ran out yet but had to use the reserve a few times on long runs. Again thanks for all the input.
