    Hi everyone, I have a problem with my fuel gauge. It all started when the bike would not start, on investigating found a simple answer ,a battery terminal was loose .Cleaned and tightened everything and the bike started first time but on checking fuel gauge. found it showing empty although there is at least two gallons for certain in the tank. any one had this problem or have any ideas Bob K.

    My fuel gauge seems to check intermittently, I mean if the tanks been off then it takes a moment to reset I think DD could be right
