Just came from Foodtown on Quay street, and when I get to the lights on custom street (I think, the one that's only busses), there's someone standing at the lights holding his bike . Pull over ask him "what's that matter?" his response "I ran out of gas" :killingme
went to go off, but then turned around to ask if he was KB, but we couldn't quite under each other. I think he said he was. he was blonde with a bluish (like the KB tabs) bike, sorry don't know what make.
So..........who was it? :D
He's still pushing the bike now towards the mobile on Quay :D
Who here has ran out and had to push?

I've run out of gas twice...on the motorway.
Once at about 4:30am (got to the shoulder, parked it and walked to the nearest 24hr petrol station - about 300m).
2nd time was mid-morning I think...had to walk back to a cop 500m back who kindly gave me a lift (to the same petrol station) and back again so I could fill the bike.
It pays not to ignore the petrol light for too long :yes:

Very poor form Indy. Help another biker, even if it only means assisting him/her to the gas station for fuel. Especially a KB'er.
:nono:

I found out the hard way just last week, that my reserve will only get me 42 k instead of the expected 60. Wasn't expecting to go 60 k on it, I usually fill up as soon as I hit reserve, but this time I didnt want to be late for my last day at work, and as the reserve should be 2 litres I thought I'd be fine. Left work and headed for the nearest gas station but didnt make it, had three to choose from within about a k - all of them UPHILL. Doh. Glad I found out in a place with smooth roads and lots of 24 hour stations, rather than on the Paraparas though. It was a pain pushing the bike, especially as it was a bit laden with luggage and other stuff. But again, it's only a GN, TG.

I did it once, not realising I was already on reserve.
I left the bike where it was, and started hitchhiking with the tank under my arm. I got a lift in less than 2 minutes, my intentions must have been pretty clear I suppose.

No, that I had a serious solvent abuse problem and was looking for help and support.
