There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Gas Left

In mine, about 2 gallons.
I've used about 4.5 gallons when the light comes on so basically 2 gallons left.
There is a gas light? Cool .... guess I don't need to keep it topped off.

welcome, I have no idea how much is left, I have ridden with no bars and my light always comes on with one bar left. I think most miles ridden was 180 and I put just under 6 gallons in the tank. At about 150 I really start looking for a fuel station though, just to be sure.

Figure you have 30 miles to find more gas and you won't run into any problems...

This is really good to know. I've kind of paniced at two bars left and wondered if my fuel light was working at all. Now, I'll let it go so long as I know I'm in a familiar area and know where the gas stations are.
Has the REAL volume of the gas tank ever been determined? I've seen multiple numbers for the actual gallons the tank will take.

There is a post somewhere around here that someone drained the tank and filled it up and i believe they said it was like 6.4 gallons but can't remember but do know it was over 6 gallons
You know I've run out of gas one time it took 6.78 gal. My trip milage was 191.2 miles. The reason why I ran out was because the stupid gas gauge fooled me after the last bar I have taken it 30 miles until gas fill up! But that day it was only 5 miles so the gauge was stuck, so I no longer rely on the gas gauge. I now watch the mileage and start looking at about 140 miles start worry at 160. Now I will start sweating at 180 which will never happen again!
