What owners report

2014-05-21, Fuel/Propulsion System
I RAN OUT OF FUEL WHILE RIDING MY MOTORCYCLE ON THE EXPRESS WAY IN A CURVE. ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE MOTORCYCLE. THE CAUSE OF ME RUNNING OUT OF GAS WAS BECAUSE MY FUEL GAUGE WAS NOT CORRECT. THE GAUGE READ 3/4 TANK FULL WHEN IT RAN OUT OF FUEL. THE FUEL GAUGE IS NOT ACCURATE AT ALL NOW. I AM UNSURE WHAT LEVEL OF FUEL I'M AT. FROM MY SEARCHES FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET, I HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE A COMMON OCCURRENCE ON ALL HARLEY V-ROD MODELS FROM 2008 TO CURRENT MODEL YEARS. I ALSO HAVE READ THAT HARLEY HAS MADE A DESIGN CHANGE TO THE FUEL SENDING UNIT BUT HAS NOT CHANGED THE PART NUMBER. LEADING ME TO BELIEVE THEY ARE TRYING TO COVER UP THE DESIGN CHANGE FOR COST REASONS. THIS

THE SPEEDOMETER BOUNCES AND DOES NOT GIVE AN ACCURATE READ OUT. I WAS TOLD THIS IS NORMAL BY HARLEY DAVIDSON IN BELLMORE, NY. I HAVE ASKED ABOUT IT NUMEROUS TIMES AND NOW MY WARRANTY IS OUT SO IT WILL NOT BE COVERED. *JS
