Can't help it bro, the speed between 90- 105 km/h feels like a dead spot for my spec 3. Its either cruise at 85km/h or whack to 110kmh. No in between haha.

How do you know that you cant pump anymore and its full?

u can practically pump it to the neck. more than that it will flow to the side and down to the floor via a tube.

Cos you have remaining fuel in the reserve.

 

Pump till the brim will do, no point pump till max and overflow to check, no need to make the pretol stn floor oily and slippery for others

4 litres of reserve or 3 litres?

[gethype]

4 litres of reserve or 3 litres?

3. Bt doesnt matter la. Spec 3 tank no need open reserve valve. Its the whole tank by itself. So once the fuel gauge starts running just go pump petrol. Anyway once the meter starts to run u hv tens of km more to go

[ldslds]

Revo its 4 litres of reserve while other is 3 litres

So, even with my fuel switch set to "ON", empty on the meter means actually empty? As in my reserve is also used up?

Whats the use of the "Reserve" option on the fuel switch for/mean then?

I dont think Spec 3 have the fuel cock for you to switch between on and reserve.

Hmm I did a constant 150 to 170kph for a few hours.

After heading back to Singapore, did a few checks no problems for me. Of course, depends on your current bike's health.
