Approx. how much more gas do I have to go when I hit reserve? I know I can go fill and subtract tomorrow at the pump, just curious tonight. Thanks Bill --powermonkey35 bill grishaw [;^| www.rainmakerstudios.com www.804music.com www.s-end.com m 804 502 5464 s 804 771 1300 please enter all 10 digits

I have found that the specs are a little off for the fuel tank capacity's. My tank only holds about 5 1/2 gal. I go on reserve at about 5 gal. I have about .50 gal's left for reserve. MrMoose A8 (Barbie and Ken special) PS: What is a Snowflurrie??

I'm trying to get a handle on just how far I can go with my A14. The first time I had to switch to reserve, I filled up immediately and was surprised that it only took 4.9 gal. Yesterday, I rode on reserve for about 22 miles, and the bike took a little over 5.3 gal. I could still see some fuel on the left side, but I didn't want to run out during Friday afternoon traffic here in San Diego. I read the article about the mod to siphon gas from the right side, and seem to remember that he was seeing about 40-45 oz trapped over there. Can I realistically get another .3 or .4 gallons? What is everyone else seeing for practical fuel range? Thanks.
