Usually has a 90 mile range but I'd been taking my brother to the gym with me so I think that affected it a lot. Only got 75 miles out of it. Plus I think the fuel mix is too rich so I will have to adjust it.

This is the second time this has happened in 3 years. On my first scooter I ran out just across the road from another Shell station.
Allah is truly a merciful god.

How can you even run out of fuel. Pay attention to your fuel meter you fucking scrub.

Many bikes don't have fuel gauges. They're starting to put them on newer bikes, finally, but older ones don't usually have them. Mines from 1997 so doesn't have one.

Do you have your full bike license or restricted? I know that you need to be over 24 and be riding for a year to get the super quick whips but whats the crack with yours?

Full license restricted for two years due to being under 24. Restrictions are a bike of no more than 600cc and 47bhp. Only have about a year and a bit left until I can move up to a bigger one. Thinking maybe a Yamaha R6 or a Kawasaki Ninja 700 if the insurance is cheap... and if they have a fuel gauge ;)

Have a look at this if you're interested in taking your A2:

Oh, idk anything about bikes.

Anyway, if it has no fuel gauge then how the hell would someone know how much fuel it has left? Do you just fuel it after every use to avoid running out, or what?

What did you flip off on the handlebars? I know my dads old Harley had a switch on that side that stopped the engine.

I have a milometer on mine that i reset every time i fuel up. I generally fuel up every 60 miles i do. Or you shake the bike to hear if there's fuel in it.

Same thing. Engine kill switch. I've heard that it's better to use that before turning the ignition off. Helps to stop battery bleed or something.
