One last note... FuelMoto doesn't give discounts OR match prices. I did order the PC3 from them which was just slightly over what I had found on another website. I'm not complaining, it just sucks when a dealer knows they have a product that we'll pay for! Anyway, it should be here in a few days.
Cant beat there customer service. Thats better than any discount out there. Just sayin

Yes, that was another consideration. Since it was the first time I ran low enuff to pull the warning light on, I didn't think about how much was still in the tank. On the guage it's red for the first quarter tank. The manual says it holds 5 gallons total with 0.9 gallons for 'reserve'. That is the first quarter tank I would think. When I took that ride to get a decent account of mileage, I ran well below the first time the light came on. It actually comes on for a few minutes then turns off again. Then a few minutes later it comes on again. I think it had come on and off at least five times before I actually hit the station. Even then I only put just over 3 gallons in so there should have been over 1.25 gallons or so left.

Fuel Moto may not give a discount...but they do add a extra year warranty and the best customer service...that's better than any discount. Plus your bike will run better and cooler.

That's what I'm hoping. Yes, I also like buying from reputable company. Didn't know anything about the warranty tho, thx for that. It runs pretty well now after all the work I've done on the valve train,and tranny. But since it's only an 88 incher I'm hopin for a bit more power. Would like to do the 95" big, but gotta get some cash flow comin in soon. Wife is gettin upset at how much I'm putting into it now. If I had known what I know now, then I prolly would have spent a bit more for the initial purchase. Live and learn I guess. Can't put a price on the educational experience I've gotten with it. I've been a mechanic most of my life... industrial, marine, automove, and I did work in a Triumph shop for a while many years ago. Always did my own work. So, wrenchin on the Harley isn't out of my realm.
