Dons’ suggestion of using the odometer and knowing your average range is cheap and easy.

Some of you probably remember when we didn’t have lights or gauges or odometers and carried a siphon hose folded inside our tubular
Handlebars for emergencies .

Those were the days...

He rode a Harleysaurus like the traffic cops in The Flintstones.

If your fuel sender went bad, you can buy s pack of those thermistors for 8 bucks on Amazon and replace them.

So, I can't put a siphon hose in my handlebars since I have bar-end indicators. Never owned a Henderson but I did own a 1959 Excelsior.  I can't remember what I had for breakfast so I'm not going to trust myself  with remembering how many miles I have left. Besides,  when I act my age I get 48 MPG. When I'm feeling 35, I only get 30 MPG. Dawn I miss three way petcocks. I'll look for replacement thermistors.

Hey Steven:  Fred in Ptld OR here. Don't want to buy thermistors? Everyone has a smart phone, right? Put fill up mileage in "Notes." I used to write it on papyrus back when I knew Moses.  🙄

C'mon Fred, you ain't as old as me if you had papyrus while I only had stone. You still flipping off truckers?

Only if they are as unaware and aggressive as that first one. From my angle at the stop light there was no way I could tell red from green. But would he listen? Noooooo. (end of rant)
