Or atleast an alternative way of knowing when my gas is low besides the regular "you'll know when it's dieng".

That question is in the air for anyone to answer.
I am trying to figure out if your bike does have some sort of gas gauge. I am leaning toward no. I saw a picture of one off ebay, Left side has speedo/odometer and trip meter. Middle has tachometer. Right has engine temp. Lights at top go left to right... "turn,oil, highbeam,neutral, turn" I didn't see anywhere on there where there's a place for one.

Most of the older motorcycles have the trip meter there so you how far you have gone. You fill up.. ride until it sputters, switch to reserve and get gas. Sounds kind of harsh, but that is how you are going to have to figure it out(I guess). 4.4 gal tank at 35 MPG average is what you get(from slight research, 30 mins). (4.4 x 35= 154. I would go about 115-120 miles to be safe and fill up there, depending on city or highway riding. City less, highway about 120 or maybe a little more to remain safe) Hope this helps.

Search the forum for "88 cbr 600" and see what that comes up with.
