Fuel light doesn't stay on
I've only just filled up my new XTR for the second time, but once again the fuel light came on at 120 miles, then went off a mile or two later, back on at 130 miles, off again, back at 140 and then was off again by the time I got to a petrol station.
Is that what they all do? I'm guessing it is. I wanted to try to get 30 miles on "reserve" but I don't know which time "reserve" started! What sort of mileage does the fuel light go and and stay on? |

The fuel light on my X comes on and goes off intermittently but I try and get it filled asap when it does come on just for peace of mind

on my "R" the fuel light comes on and off for about 10-20 miles - usually somewhere between 130 and 150 miles and but then stays on. The fuel countdown seems to be clever enough to take account of each period of "on" as it doesn't reset to zero until I fill up.
If I catch it as the light is staying on a refill takes 11 litres meaning there is around 4 litres in reserve, about 50-60miles. |

(05 xtx).The light does come and go off on mine but after lighting for the first time the fuel trip shows on the dash and continues to do so until you reset it
