I depend on my trip odometer more than the light. I reset it when I

Me too. 1600 Meanie for me these days, although I'ld like to sell it and
ride my wife's Road Glide since she doesn't ride any more. I wish the
Meanie would let me just be worried at 130 miles. LOL.

The last bike I had was a 1949 Harley 74 and I just used to open up
the tank cap and look in :-)
Sounds like my '49 VW. You could stick your hand down the filler
pipe to determine how much gas was left.

Typical VW owner. Sheesh...


Used to joke about just
dropping the jerry can i nto the tank instead of pouring the gas from
the can to the tank.

They had the large opening for the quick dump jerry cans used at F1.
