Default First Harley help

My first post and my first Harley.
I just bought a 2008 Sportster XL883L
Love the bike.
Question:
When the low fuel light indicator goes off, just how much fuel is really left ?

Thanks all !

Welcome to the forum, sorry can't answer your question but if you post it down the the sportster section I'm sure you'll get an answer.
