Also just rode to work wet and no fuel gauge issue today it's all weird
15w oil makes a huge difference in my opinion, really makes the front end more managable in comparison to old 10w oil.
The fuel guages are a bit weird on these bikes, you can go 50 odd miles without it budging off the "full" position, then afterwards the needle will start dropping, but i don't ever recall a needle bouncing about.
For the record you have an 18 litre fuel tank, and i've always said a good, but obviously rough, guide for mileage on these bikes is 10 miles per litre of fuel, give or take depending on riding style, speed, and so on.
Later bikes have 20 & 22 litre tanks.
This is worth a glance.
