Exactly. Motorcycles, especially older models, have had the 'Reserve'
concept in place since just about forever. My current bike doesn't have a
mechanical reserve where I have to flip a valve, but it has a digital fuel
gauge that starts flashing and counts the miles. I know I can go 35-40
miles once it goes on Reserve. And yes, planning ahead is the best.




Seems to me that the older Volswagen bugs had the same thing. A reserve
tank, probably no fuel gauge.


You know it's going to be a bad day when the bike starts to sputter, you
reach down to turn the petcock to reserve, and you find it's already
there...


Does the AAA cover bikes?
