Lou,

I get 200-230 miles on a tank before the fuel light comes on, and at that 
point I think there is just about a gallon left.  Anyone know for sure 
where that is calibrated to occur?  I find the milage and the gauge's 
behaviour more consistent on my '03 than on the '99, getting around 50 mpg 
w/ Triumph's stainless "off-road" pipe on both.

FWIW, HIH...
