I only ride for fun and just put enough in for the ride I am about to do, more of splash and dash. Up to 100miles So I have never filled it and I have never seen a sticky gauge and mostly ride it down to the warning light. My thinking is that way I always have fresh petrol in as I can go weeks in between rides. If I was to fill right up then that petrol could be in there for months.
You won't notice anything until you fill the tank up full.
The needle stays above the "full" for i'd guess around a third of the tank without budging, then it'll suddenly drop.
Possibly the most inaccurate gauge i've ever seen.
[/quote]Yep I was trying to demonstrate, maybe to those who always fill up that it is a full tank quirk but otherwise I find the gauge to be accurate, But the light - on gives you loads, I think someone on here tested it and got 75 miles/ 45 miles - cant remember out of a warning light.
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
