zero when there's still a 1/4 tank left - so I just use the trip meter to get gas based
on miles ridden
Thanks, I am use to using the trip od to back up the gas gauge. I will check the plug this weekend. Thanks for the input.

Default Jump in to say hello!

I´m a newbie on this forum. A Swedish guy, 41 years young. Drives a 1000F -87.

But here in Sweden we don´t have the name Hurricane on them, just cbr 1000f.

Welcome Spyro , nice bike

Yeah funny that the way the decals varied from country to country.

I have an 87 in WinterLake Blue Metallic ( mostly a blueish tinted silver)
with Hurricane on the tank
