Too lazy to give you a straight answer, so, the official story id 6.1 gallons.> > > Too lazy to search..... How many gallons in the stock fuel tanks ? > Thanks >
Yeah, Funny thing about the book, legends, myths etc. You won't know if the tip-over works until your bike is overloaded, out of fuel, and it is still 10 miles from a fueling point. Did I mention it will be colse to 100F as well.... revmaaatin. ps. if you are using a fuel filter, you will find this out sooner than later. ie. hit reserve because you need head pressure for fuel to flow through the filter, resulting in 'more' trapped gas than just .3 gallons.> > I haven't looked real close at my KLR (just purchased last week) but > isn't there a connecting tube under the tank that allows access to the other > side of the "reserve" bottom half?
