I pulled an *Eor* yesterday : ) and coasted into a gas station. I found reserve ran out at 35 miles in town (0-60 mph) riding. I put 4.42 gal in filling it up till it's just above that ledge inside the tank/frame. ANy more and I tend to overfill it.

My XB12Scg also ran out of reserve at 35 miles. I pushed it because I thought the light must be lying. Every time my light comes on - at around 100 miles - it only takes 2 gallons to fill it. Am I being cautious and not filling enough? I get around 100 miles out of 2 gallons so it seems I'm getting exceptional mileage. Feel like I'm missing a gallon and I want to figure this out before I head out on a big trip next month. Any ideas appreciated.

Dave - You beat me, the most I have put in the Uly was 4.2 with 30 miles on reserve.

On my Uly..same here 4.4 with 40 miles on reserve and it still running. It confuses me and I tend to forget as my last bike had a 1.0 gallon reserve good for 40+ miles. I just need to pay more attention...that's all...
