1) Yes. Eventually the fuel gauge will start flashing, and the trip display will change to 'F-Trip' which tells you how far you've been since it started flashing. Note that the gauge is set to start flashing with ~6.7 litres left, which is between a quarter and a third of the tank capacity. So you probably have a good 50 miles to find a petrol station.



2) Rear shock is adjustable for preload only. C-Spanner to adjust it should be in the toolkit which is under the seat, at the back of the tank.

I dont suppose there is a way to fix the fuel gauge? It's quite annoying to be stressed when it only takes 12 litres to fill it up again

The fuel gauge works exactly as described in the user handbook, and does so fairly consistently. Why get stressed about it?
