    Well, last night I wanted to get rid of the shitty fuel I ahd left in my tank as it was causing my bike to run like arse, so i pull the hose going the the carbs and let it all drain out of reserve and normal tank.

    After everything was gone, and no more drops were coming I re-attached the hose and searched for my spare fuel bottle.

    Unbeknown to me, it happened to disappear, so here I am at home, about 2k's from the nearest servo, with an empty FZR, no reserve, no fuel.

    So I head out to the road, and try to clutch start it, it worked! so i putted to the nearest servo, with only the fuel that was in my carbs already. Going no more than 60, helmet visor down, legs tucked in and looking through windscreen.

    I ran out as I pulled up to the roundabout right next to the servo <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

    Hurrah for FZR's and their godly fuel consumption (or lack thereof) :p

    I find that if you take out that engine thing... it makes a bike use no fuel at all <!-- s:alcoholic: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_all_coholic.gif" alt=":alcoholic:" title="Alcoholic" /><!-- s:alcoholic: -->

    And then there is that ungodly deaccelation and merge into the emergency lane until the fuel runs back into the carbs. been there a few to many times. <!-- s:cry: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cry.gif" alt=":cry:" title="Crying or Very sad" /><!-- s:cry: -->
