Default Gas issue?

It seems like I need to fill up my gas tank very often and when every time I fill it up it only fills up 1.5 gallons in a 5 gallon tank. Doesanyone know what would cause this?

does your light come on or are you just mentally thinking you need gas? The light shouldn't come on until you have like .90 gallons left... if the light is coming on maybe the low fuel sensor is screwy? Just a thought.

Just wait until you need to switch to reserve. then You'll know if your low fuel light is messed up.

WTF???? No reserve?[&:]

What kind of bike do you own?

Also, can you see the gas in your tank when the low fuel light comes on? does the tank look empty at this point?
