Fuel

[rs_tubby]

just a quick question do the sv650s have a fuel gauge on it (K3+) or not and if so how much do you normally get out of a tank???

no fuel gauge, one light starts blinking when you're "low" and stays on when "critical"

No just a low fuel warning light. I get 150 miles before mine comes on. The double screen gives me about 20 miles extra on a tank. :o

my K5 light comes on everyday at 108 miles (I do 120 miles a day commute)

god damn you two were fast in replying, thats a pitty but isnt going to stop me from buying one, i will just have to watch for the flashy light and check things out and keep my right hand in order (throttle wise :smt040 ).

trust me, you won't miss the light, it's already annoying me and i've had the bike 8 days, plus the fact that compared to my diesel cage (5-600 miles on a tank) it feels like i've driven off the forecourt and round the roundabout before i need to go back:D

hahahahaha is an exhaust going to shorten my fuel life expectancy then or will it remain the same?
