Is there a 'Full Tank' Triangle? If so, where? '22 RT

[Leroy73]

I thought I had read on this forum that once the fuel tank is "really" full a triangle appears. I have over flowed my tank and still have not seen the triangle. 2022 RTLS
Where is it at. I see the flags.

I don’t know anything about some triangle light illuminating but I know one thing about filling the fuel tank on my RTL completely and that it is impossible to be done at the filling station. When I want my tank completely full the only way I have found is to fill it up slowly with a fuel can at home.

There are little triangles in side the filler tube at the top , maybe they mean those when full. I can't get it as high as they show in the manual without worrying it will pour out.

A triangle appears on the display? Not on my 2024 Spyder.

The fuel "gauge" on the display is the image of a gasoline pump, with a series of vertical bars that run left (empty) to right (full).

Do you have to be careful of the evap can on the newer bike as you did the older ones? I took the can off the older bike, is it an issue on the 1330's?

All aprons at gas stations are not level. If you want to really fill it up find a pump where the front of the bike is higher than the back and the left side is higher than the right side.

In most all gas pumps I've used since purchasing my Spyder the velocity of fuel coming out of the nozzle and the degree of control one has over the flow into the tank is miserable. I also find it very difficult to get the tank as full as jzeiler's pic shows.

No. You can top off completely without any backflow into the evap like the older models.

I have found one local gas station where one specific pump allows me to add gas at a very slow and controlled rate. Most gas pumps seem to be pretty much full on or shut off, but this one pump that I use allows me to get about a gallon short of full under the normal locked input. Then I gently hold the trigger on the pump and add gas right up to where it is pooling at the entrance. I know it doesn't really make sense to try and squeeze in as much gas as possible since I am not planning on being somewhere where gas would be hard to come by, but I like to fill up as much as it will hold before parking the Spyder in my garage.

My RT is a 2021, and the gas gauge is wildly inaccurate, and the data showing the mpg seems even worse in terms of accuracy, often showing me getting 3 or 4 mpg when in fact I seem to average about 32 mpg regardless of how I ride. I had the chance to ride a 2025 RTL yesterday and like the gas display much better, but wonder if it is any more accurate than my RT.

The gas station here in my town is the same way. There's only one pump there that I will use when l fill my Spyder, so I can fill it up, and then slowly tap the trigger on the nozzle to get it all the way up, like you said.
