Title: Fuel capacity
Post by: bosozoku on June 12, 2007, 01:55:12 PM
Now that I've got the bike working, I've discovered that I'm only going between 2 and 2.5 gal before I hit reserve.  I'm filling on the centrestand to the bottom of the filler neck.  Tank has been repainted and Kreemed.  What's going on here -- was the bike a 'vice' transporting vehicle in a previous life?!  :dunno_white:

What year is the bike? On my 1996 I usually only get 3 gallons in after I hit reserve.
