Hey just had a call from a friend who wanted to know if these have a reserve or not, anyone know for sure?

Thanks Mick... :oops:

Never in my whole life have i ran out of fuel... but what shit me the most is that i didnt have the trip meter set to know exactly how many km i'd done... :oops: :oops: shit....

I called Mick... :roll: laughter echoed down the phone... then finally after the first 100 cages past me someone turned around... a ute.. hopefully they would have a torch and half a brain to help... no just someone who knew my bike... shit
" you'll be right i have a meeting to get to... seeing your ok, im gunna go... but let me know how you get on"... can you believe it... but anyway ... called for help and long story short got fuel and headed home...

For the record... ( according to the manual..) 2008 Z's dont have reserve tap.. when the last level shows on the gauge you hav 3L left... when she starts flashing 2.5L GET FUEL...lol

Poss... :lol:

not good poss but the good news is, is that it's a new bike so you should have to much crap at the bottom of the tank to drag through the system
