That gas tank readout doesn't seem accurate, i know my lx can hold at least 1 1/2 gallons and my friend with a streetmate says it only holds .7 even after using that annoying release valve. Thats really his only gripe with the bike...no fuel capacity at all, he says he only gets 50 or so miles to the tank..Good news is he keeps a cool looking aluminum 1/2 or so gallon of gas in his COMPARTMENT BOX, yes its what everyone has been waiting for, a gigantic compratment box.
