What does each bar on the fuel gauge represent? Miles or fractions of gas?

[kenfyoozed_imp]

first bar for me gone at 36 miles this fill up.....

Okay let me try this again, my tablet updated it's app and I lost the whole post just as I was about to post it.

Splintering this away from the miles per gallon thread!

Okay who is going to take this on and figure out for us all what each bar on the fuel gauge represents? Is it certain miles or a certain amount of has for each mile?

At least it will be for that one bike and might she'd some light for the rest of us but it might not pertain to more than one persons bike...

Things to consider:

Could barometric pressure play a factor in it?
Could ambient temperature play a factor in it?
Could the actual fuel makeup play a factor?
Could different octane levels play a factor?
Could a tank protector play a factor on the contents inside?
The big one, could your oil viscosity play a factor in it?

I am sure there are a lot more factors that I didn't list but please can someone figure this out?

Does anyone have a contact at Honda to find out what their engineers had in mind when they engineered this handy fuel gauge?

I invite one and all to help get to the bottom of this and most definitely invite foolardi as it sounds like he may already be working on this.

I think the biggest factor is where the diesel is produced? and what......squirrel!
