hi there everyone,
im new to this forum been recommend by a friend.
i have a sv650sk3 04 FI which is restricted by the intake and throttle bodies, it has a k&n filter element and non standard end can exhaust.

ever since i had the air filter and exhaust changed i managed to get about 5 miles more per tank on average

but i hear people say about the fuel light flashing, mine doesnt but should it as i dont no if its new one that do,

and im doing on a good day 110 miles before the light comes on and i have had it run out of fuel twice at 130 miles and 145 miles and to me this is very poor fuel economy, what should it be doing on average? as its a 17 litre tank

hope someone can help, would be much appreciated

thanks
