With regards to SV and fuel gauge; the light comes on (at least, on the curvy) when there are 4 litres left. I can get about 10 miles per litre (slightly less around london commuting, alot more when I'm doing longer rides around sussex etc). Just reset your trip at each fuel stop, and know that you might need to fill up as early as 120 miles, or as late as 150 miles (if you go by filling up when the light starts to flash)

Yeah you can get loads of options for carrying luggage.. top box, paniers, tailpacks etc...

Have a look at some of the pictures from the AR08 section. That'll give you an idea

I don't really see the need for a fuel guage.. just use the trip and fuel light
