Sure they will.
You do understand _why_ they charge more for electric, right?
(hint: electric vehicles don't pay gas taxes).
Yeah, take your eyes off the road.
Sigh.
Humor impaired? Too subtle for you?
Oh, gee, thanks. Who would know that?
Exactly. Motorcycles, especially older models, have had the 'Reserve' concept in place since just about forever. My current bike doesn't have a mechanical reserve where I have to flip a valve, but it has a digital fuel gauge that starts flashing and counts the miles. I know I can go 35-40 miles once it goes on Reserve. And yes, planning ahead is the best.
Seems to me that the older Volswagen bugs had the same thing. A reserve tank, probably no fuel gauge.
8N Ford tractors had that reserve tank setting. One opened the fuel valve maybe one full turn for the normal setting. Open it maybe two full turns to use the reserve fuel.

That's true of any crash. At that magnitude the disconnect is the least of the ff's worries. Remember, ff's like to break things. ;)

But yet you want more gov't involvement with mandates.

It was. Philly had Sally Starr & American Bandstand & Dick Clark & Captain Kangaroo!

I can't either. Hyper is a good word for him. I'm not going to watch the vid because my time is worth something, Scotty will make a few cents off it and I think I have a sense of it already.

You know it's going to be a bad day when the bike starts to sputter, you reach down to turn the petcock to reserve, and you find it's already there...

Does the AAA cover bikes?
It looks like they do. It never occurred to me to apply for it for anything. All of my bikes have been rice grinders though.
It was a Suzuki DR650 that needed to be walked back to the house for a snack. And, yes, I really did walk the thing about a mile.
Anyway I don't have AAA.
