2019 Street Twin Fuel Gauge

When i picked up my 2019 they warned me that it would take several fill ups for the 'computer' to learn how full the tank was and the range left. Mine still isn't perfect but is much better than when i first got it. To be fair i have only manged 600 miles on it so far.

 

Is it brand new?

 

My Street Twin takes about 5 minutes or so of riding to fully calibrate. The owners manual even mentions that. So if it eventually registers full than it is working OK.

From the bike manual:

 

Many new Triump's do this, it's normal, annoying but normal, I tend to re-fill my ST when it hits two bars, approx £12 of super dooper (wasted money really) unleaded, my MPG (proper British gallon none of that former colony gallon stuff) is in the mid-late 60's early 70's allegedly.

 

One thought, does it make a difference filling up on the side stand or holding upright? My first few fills were upright, before realising the off centre cap sits at the top when on the side stand.

 

Had mine two'n'half years, always fill it to the brim and never had the gauge showing 100% full. Now I never expect it to.

 

Mine has also never registered 8 bar full. But it really does not bother me. I know it is full. I just watch miles traveled and know I can easily get 150 miles per fill up with some to spare.

 

Yup. Thats just the way it is. A few times in the last 3 years, ive tryed to get full bars. Filled up on left side first, then tilted to the right and added more. Thats the few times it registered max bars.
