fuel guage

Greetings
am I correct to say that the 660 has a 22l fuel tank?
my bike is showing empty and only takes 16l to fill?
is this a known issue?

My Ten does the same. Don't know why exactly but something I've been wondering about myself.

Are you talking about empty when the last bar on the fuel gauge is still solid?
I find I can really still go quite far before the bar starts flashing and the trip odo switches over to zero to show the kilo's traveled on reserve. Then I can still do about 100 km on the reserve which is about 6.7 liters.

As Dirk says, 6L to 7L left in the tank when the gauge starts to flash is totally normal.

BTW - The tank holds 23 litres, not 22.
