My 2001 FZS600 (alas no longer with us) was exactly the same, seemed to stay on full for ages then drop like a stone untill the red light came on, just the way they are :wall

My 2000 FZS600 was the same, stay at the top for miles on end then drop rather rapidly. Don't worry as you will eventually get to the point where you can judge your fuel usage just as well as the meter.
