ya can't add one easily as it's a lot of hassle to do so. Simply use yer trip meter and reserve tap as that'll be more reliable.

ok is there a diagram for positions?
Ok Sando, is this yer first bike with a fuel tap? There may be a tiny indicating arrow on the the movable part of the tap, if so the tiny arrow pointing downwards at the 6 o clock position is ON. Tiny arrow at the 9 o clock position is OFF. Tiny arrow pointing upwards to 12 o clock position is RESERVE.

I'm thinking he makes the arrow end more pointy so's he can feel the difference atween the two ends without having to look at it.

good idea.
That's it Studley, while riding you can reach down and know the correct end of the tap... for reserve usually. A lot easier.
good idea.

I like the rubber hose idea, maybe not great looking but easier in winter when you have thicker gloves on

Another tip, If you ever take your tank off, just make sure you put the pipes back on the right way.

Yes I bought my bike with the pipes on the wrong around, Found out when the bike ran totally empty on the dual carriageway
Glad I'm not the only one !
I was a mile uphill from the new Shap services on the M6. Unfortunately they put a new junction in too so I daren't risk free wheeling across it.

Yep mine was like that too, never noticed the arrow before but the tap is longer on that end
