It's very heavy, luckily lenoir city cops are nice and have small gas cans. I was like a 1/4 mile from the station too, I thought I could make it.

I ran out once and a local cop stopped and told me I should get a ticket for improper operation of a motor vehicle.

Effer.

I "thought" I had run out of gas about 20 years ago on a 88 Ninja 600R (first bike) but then remembered it had a reserve switch/tank. I had actually go off of the bike and started walking before I remembered...dumbazz move but it never happened again.

In Germany it is illegal to run out of gas, usually only enforced on the autobahn however.
