  • Reserve fuel

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how many liters of fuel is left in the tank when you switch on reserve. I've got a '81 RH with a 15 liter tank. (I think its the same size as the specail tank).

      For Specials,

      The owner's manual states about 2.5 liters/.66gal should be left when the low fuel light comes on, and that you should then switch to reserve, but doesn't exactly say that's how much you should have left!?!? Also, it depends on your bike setup, what angle the tank sits, if fairly flat, or more inclined, could change values! HTH.

      BTW, there's a link in the Links section for a PDF file of the owner's manual for the 81 standard and special, about 6MB D/L if you want/ need it!!
