Yesterday I went out of fuel in middle of driving. No warning from low fuel light. Can anybody tell me how to check is it sensor or light?
Thanks

Hi everyone,
As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.
When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.
Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.
Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.
Thanks for your patience and support!

The sensor is a little piece of metal affixed to the fuel pump flange, the 510 vibrates and the little piece breaks off and lays in the bottom of the tank. Happened to my 450. I use the tripometer now as my fuel gauge.

Anyone know how it works on a Carbureted bike? My TE610 never shows low fuel, but I've also never ran it dry.

If it works the same way as the fuel injected models, then as I understand it there are two wires that are connected to a little cylindrical assembly and when this is submerged in fuel there is no continuity between the wires, but when out of fuel there is, resulting in the fuel warning light to come on!
