No, when it was nearly "out" it was because it wasn't "as submerged" as it would be other-wise. Fuel pump sound and performance is unchanged.
That's good info jeffskar.
Been across Wyo and Neb many times and gas aint always where you hoped it would be. I havent been on long trips on the 2013 CB yet and was wondering about the range after low fuel flash.

Who won the race between you and the Duramax

Duramax got schooled pretty bad, hahaha! And he was the one instigating the race.

Duramax got schooled pretty bad, hahaha! And he was the one instigating the race. Nice. I always find it somewhat funny when people in relatively average cars try to race bikes, considering most bikes over 500cc can deliver non-turbo Porsche levels of acceleration pretty effortlessly.
I actually can't wait til next year, I'm gonna reduce the front sprocket down from 19 to 15, or possibly 16 teeth, and go from 39, to 44-46 on the rear, and see what she'll do at the 1/8th mile track. No other mods aside from changing the final drive ratio.
Jeff for comparison on a DLX with a 4.6 gal tank.. on todays ride I went on 1 flashing bar at 169 miles (272 km) on my trip meter B which I reset every time I fill up. It went to telling me how far I could go shortly afterward and started at 66 miles (106km) to go on the count down. When it got down to 37 miles (60km) to go, I stopped for gas. I had gone 206.5 miles (332 km) on the tank, and about 38 miles (61km) on the flashing bar. It took 3.8 gals to fill up (out of 4.6 ) so .8 of a gallon remaining or approx. another 44 miles (70km) until empty at 55 mpg.
(KMs are for our friends that use that system lol)
I have gone further on a tank, for some reason 225 miles (362 km) comes to mind and I had about 1/2 gallon left I figured.

Thanks for adding the DLX fuel test Ferret. Got about 180 miles planned tomorrow so a good fill up will ease my mind.
