Returning from a trip to the Cat & Fiddle, my mates were signalling they needed fuel. A quick glance at my fuel guage told me I still had a full tank. FULL TANK? After 130 miles? Something wasn't right. Pulling into to the nearest petrol station a vigorous shake of the bike got the guage to drop down to 2 bars. Methinks a sticky float in the sender unit. A couple of tankfulls later, with the guage repeatedly running at full for well over 120 miles and my dealer is telling me this might not be unusual as the Tracer has a tall tank and the float doesnt reach to the top of the tank so will not show a linear fuel use from full. While that might sound sensible, full to 3 bars after 120 miles or more still sounds like a fault to me. Dealer is a bit of a trek from me so he is going to fill and drain the tank on his demo and report back.
Anyone else had a similar experience?
