> The fuel gauge on the pre-2007 bikes is horrible, it will show empty at half a tank.
yuppers, just go by the trip counter, unless you want to get into some silly mode-ing. The bike will go 200 miles on a tank, as proven by a few nutty guys on ducatisti.com (another good UK site) but safely go 160 miles....mine does all the time with the termignoni's on it. I'm told it'll go further on the stock set up.
The problem is discussed in depth on the ducatisi site.
> Filling, go slowly, rock the bike back and forth a bit to get air bubbles out. The tank goes all the way to the rear under the seat.
I don't seem to have a problem filling mine up. At the moment, mine seems to be mad about starting....
Anyway, if you don't have a good mechanic close, you might wanna think about getting one. There is no way to adjust your idle with out a £4000 computer...but there are some really cool ones out there. Mike at MD racing in leatherhead is awesome, and one hell of a mechanic.
Welcome and enjoy...I've been on here for a while, and I have an ST in the states that looks like it's going to take a ship ride some time soon.
