Light? What Light? I have a carbed bike. Is it supposed to have a light also? The only warning I have is the bike starts to sputter. Then I know to switch the petcockto reserve.

 

You've got the "bullet-proof" low level indication - a sputtering engine. No need for light! Fuel injection has no petcock andno reserve, just an idiot light. It took me a long time to get over not having a kick starter when they were phased out. I think it's going to take me longer to feel comfortable riding without a definite reserve in the FI bike. When I first got the FI, I found myself still reaching down to turn on the gas and pull out the choke on a cold start sometimes. It felt like it was missing some of its ... plumbing. [&o]

 

For all of you putting more than 5 gals in a 5 gal tank?????

 

I have done 20 miles after it came on and took 4.6 gallons
Don't think I would enjoy pushing this heavy bast**d

 

I can put in 4.7 gallons after the light comes on ... about 30 miles of two up riding for me.

 

i have pushed my 05 standard to 172 and still no light and it took 4.6 gallons so I just go by mileage and start looking around the 150 range.

 

Just filled it today and the light came on @ 150 miles and took 3 1/2 gals. Around 42 mpg. and the bike now has 725 miles on it.

 

My light comes on at 194 miles....A fill up with the Ultra Classic standing staright up, not on the jiffy stand..I will squeeze 4.8 gallons in.

 

Couldn't tell you. My gauge has been wacked out since day one! I am going on my second fuel sending unit in 3 wks on my new 07' RG. Last visit they checked all the bikes wiring to see if any shorts, line breaks, etc. All checked out - just bad sending unit my bad luck go figure 2x in 3 wks. Maybe I should stop using rock fuel?

 

I put in 3 gallons after the light comes on. Almost 150 miles on the odometer. I don't get in a hurry to fuel when the light comes on anymore, and I worry about getting to casual about it. Nice buffer though.
