Thanks for the input. Its not a warranty issue. Its simply about finding out why its so widely inaccurate ..and then fixing it..under warranty! Its been calibrated twice which consists of measuring voltage ( increase) changes for each litre of fuel inserted from completely empty. There is a brand new float mechanism now in the tank so ....so far everything checks out 100% except its widely inaccurate! Light comes on at 110kms yet is burning fuel at 4.8 lt per 100 kms ( trip metre use for each tank fill up ) so at an average of 5 lt per 100kms has an actual range of 240kms. So the light comes on at 45% of fuel burn. In all other respects the bike exceeds expectations. Just this one issue is marring the ownership experience. Cheers Paul
As Old School Goes and Old School Knows, the only way to measure fuel is to.........
Start from empty and I do mean empty. Get a stick pink it in the tank and remove .:
Then mark it as empty.
Put One Litre of petrol in the tank and Dip and remove Stick.
Mark Stick "One Litre"
Repeat this trick for 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 litres or what ever graduations take your fancy.
The Laws of Physics does not change , but seems to get more inaccurate with time.
But you can trust this stick to always be RIGHT FOR YOUR OWN BIKE.
The inaccuracy will come from the method used to measure petrol put in tank.
Some people like to saw the marks and even vanish the stick and paint the numbers.
Its your stick , don't let anyone throw it a way.
Others go as far as using a fancy , fuel pump , that is available for Top Professional Race Car teams.
This gives a Digital read out of litres pumped to the Hundredth of a Litre.
Give me the stick anytime.
Now ” what was the Question " , only joking.
Its confusing you. Stick with the Litres left and measure it.
Only when that's accurate , then worry about the kms.
Chris .... Let me know if u agree.
TO TT.
