To Get Gas, Or Not To Get Gas

by Leah
(Indiana)

Recently, my husband and I were riding (separately) to another city. We were going through another city first, I asked my husband "Do we need to get gas"? He answered "NO"! Well, guess what? I ran out of gas 2 miles outside that city. What did I learn, you ask? I NEED TO CHECK MY OWN GAS!!!! By the way, he was kind enough to walk it back into town to get gas!!

 Know When To Gas Up
by: Mz Mud Putter

One of the first things I always do when I get a new bike is fill the gas tank, zero the trip meter and run the bike til I hit reserve. Then I fill up again. From that I can tell how many miles I can ride before I hit reserve, how much gas I have left in reserve and how many miles I can ride on reserve before I am empty.

 Gas?
by: Karon

I learned how many miles I could go before I had to switch to my reserve tank, so every time I fill up, I reset my mileage counter ... you'll never run out if you get that one down-pat!

Definitely need to check your own fluids, not only gas but oil and any other fluids.
