Worry about Number One first, and your Ambassador Post second.

Let's face it, not all of these douchenozzles will be wooed with the carrot. When the carrot is your only tool, every problem looks like a rabbit. Or something The real problem is that most of the nozzles have never seen the stick before. Stand up as always.

His bike didnt have a reserve? Wtf?

Any carb bike I rode had a reserve. The more modern FI bikes had a digital display and a fuel gauge. If it started flashing, GET GAS NOW!

But it's entirely possible there are bikes that just have a low fuel light but no reserve.

Fuel injected bikes do not have a reserve and most bikes today have FI instead of carburators.

I have been riding over 30 years, every bike I have owned has had a reserve. I have run out of gas three times, each time because someon sat on my bike, decided to touch things and tuned my trip meter off its true number and turned my tank to reserve. All thee times it was my fault for not checking the gas cock. One time I was telling myself, wow I am getting great mileage today followed by that sick feeling when your engine starves you switch the tank to what you think is reserve only to find out you are out.
On my current bike I highlighted the valve with white and red paint on the wording and arrow. If it happens again then it will still be my fault

Damn. I don't even worry about fuel until 180 miles. I've gone 200+ on multiple occasions. 2007 Suzuki V-Strom 650.

I get 125 - 145 on a full tank depending on how hard I ride my Buell XB9S. My bike doesn't have a reserve or a gauge.... It just has a stupid light that comes on when I have .9 gallons of fuel left.

Him - I just need to get to a gas station... I ran out of gas again. I have a small can in my bag.... can you point me in the direction of a gas station?

Me - There's a station a few blocks over, I can give you a ride if you like.

Him - No thanks, I can walk a few blocks... maybe this will serve as a reminder for me to keep better tabs on my fuel level or pay someone to fix the god-damned fuel light on my bike.

^^^ It seems to me that the guy was still holding some reservations about you and your evil gun.

My Honda has neither a gauge nor a low fuel warning light. Only time I ever ran out of gas was because I dropped it off for service with a full fuel tank and expected to get it back still full or nearly so.
