|  Fuel Consumption I have an 85 Honda Magna VF700c. It suposedly has a 3.7 gallon tank. Shortly after the low fuel indicator light came on, I refueled. I was only able to get 2.2 gallons in. By that calculation, the low fuel light comes on with 1.5 gallons left. That seems like a lot. Anyone know what amount trips the fuel indicator?

| Probably correct...my Bandit has a large amount in reserve...something they "fixed" on later models. I wouldn't worry too much...if you want to do an absolute check run it till reserve light comes on and then drain the tank to see how much comes out. Good luck
