..riding home after chillin with the gf...im on the freeway not paying attention to how many miles my tripometer says....and next thing u know tank runs out...im like o shaZam! wtf...pull off to the side takes me a minute to figure out that i ran out of gas so put it in reserve and off i go.... :icon_rolleyes:
LMAO been there my friend, been there. ( on my sportster, and one my gs as well)
Happened to me just last week while I was trying to pass a truck. I was able to pull back, switch to reverse, and moved on, but I strained muscle a bit doing so, the switch is so way back, and hard to reach. Need practice on that i guess.
Similar happened to me- I was going up a bridge and it started to bog. I go to switch to reserve.....IT'S ALREADY THERE!!!! I forgot to switch back after filling up! I make my way to the peak of the bridge and toss it into neutral but I was only doing about 30mph and it was a shaZam! my pants moment until I was about halfway down the other side. I was slowing down the entire time. Pulled off the road, took a moment then hopped off and started hiking it to the gas station.
