Fuel Capacity...? 
-sam said 2011-07-10 03:26 
 
I bought this bike about two months ago. It is my first bike and I am loving it and riding it alot. I just rode it from NYC to Toronto.
Here´s my question:
The fuel capacity is supposed to be 13 litres (3.5 gallons)
When I fill up the tank from empty, it only fills about half of that and then it is full. I.e I put 7 litres in there and the gas level is at the top. I know I´m filling it from almost empty because I was already in the reserve tank. There are no visible gas leaks...so what´s going on?
