You're not filling up when the light comes on and thinking you're putting 16L in when you're only putting about 8 in are you? Might be your light coming on early and you've not realised - don't laugh, I've read that happening before!

Taking capacity of tank, cost to fill, noting that when the light comes on, it's at just about a fiver's worth of fuel. Also using the trip meter and offsetting that with cost to fill to max. If that makes any sense.

I ran it dry recently (to my shame) and the trip meter still read less than 100 miles.

To answer other questions:
Bike has done 42000 miles.
There are no fuel leaks.
Haven't noticed any kind of fluid coming out of the exhaust.

Everything else is getting looked at in January.
