You own an '08 that came with NO owner's manual?

I wonder what it would take to convert my 07 to have this feature. I don't like not having the reserve on the 07...although the FI is SO nice!

It seems that "r" indicator is also speed, terrain, gear selection, etc. dependent. On a 3,000 mile ride, my riding partner and I (same scoots, same mods) noticed that the numbers change as you adjust riding style (drop to 60 mph, avoiid hard pulls from stops, etc.) It may say "30" one minute, "16" the next, then go back uip.
It's cute, but...at 190 miles, that 103" is thirsty!

I've been down to R single digits a couple of times and and it always takes around 5.25 gallons, so 3/4 gallon left in the tank.
I don't normally run it that low as I've been told the fuel cools components in the tank.

I thought when it hit the 10 miles remaining point the display changed to "LO".

Yeah, it does. It's ok. Don't tell him.
I love this feature. Cause my gauge looks like it's empty WAY before it actually is.
Fun fact: I was gonna make my username something like "r Lo" to see if anyone figured it out, but changed my mind.
