I depend on my trip odometer more than the light. I reset it when I
fill up and start looking for fuel at around 100 miles. Around 130
miles I start to get pretty worried;-)

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...

Ex VW owner. 1973-74 in Livingstone Zambia. Then I owned an early
injected Rabbit for about 6 months here in Ontario. That was enough.


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.
