You know what, I just fucking failed. I confused two bikes into thinking mine had one. *sigh*

This is what I get for not riding in 2 weeks. *shamed*

I may go look just so I don't feel crazy.

Just based on this fail, I am going to ride my bike to the gym today.

Cutty72 · 03-05-2009, 01:53 PM

careful, don't run out of gas. you don't have a gas gauge remember.

Quick281 · 03-05-2009, 01:55 PM

True, but unlike Ebbs I am short enough to see my low fuel light!

In fact, it bugs the shit out of me if it comes on at night, so I suppose it could be said that it is a very effective low fuel light.

When mine comes on, I pay attention.
I have 25 miles to get gas, if I play nice.
26 miles, and I'm walking.

I have about 30ish when my light blinks and then it goes solid. Once it goes solid, I found out I have about 10 miles left. 9 Miles if I have to go up a long hill.

That Honda exhaust is pretty quiet. When my friend goes ripping by on his 05 its like a humming whisper. lol

Quiet is not always a bad thing, it would help out tremedously in the summer for me. Cops can't hear you acting a fool.

When my gas light starts blinking I twitch and make noises like I'm at a rave. Seriously, at 150 miles it's time for a cigarette. I usually need to smoke or pee long before I need to fill up.

I do the same thing, and start freaking out when my light comes, even though I know I still have a good 30-40 miles left when it does.

You're going to love/hate riding with me. I have to stop for a pee break about every 45 minutes. I have the bladder of a 6 month old chihuahua
