Do GasGas Supermotos not come with a low fuel light?
 
I bought an 04 GG 450sm recently. On my second ride, I ran out of gas and realized there is no low fuel light and no reserve. Kind of ironic for a bike called GAS GAS. There was still fuel sloshing around in the bottom of the tank, it seemed like it should have still been able to run for a little while, but I couldn't find a reserve anywhere on the bike.

I don't think the low fuel light is broken, because I don't even see one anywhere on the dash. There are high-beam, lights, turn signal, and oil indicators and one black one with no wire going to it. I guess a low fuel could go in that spot, but it looks like mine didn't come with one.

Has anyone else had this problem and what did you do to fix it?
Thanks for any help!

If it's a stock petckock reserve is 180deg from the off position, where normal is in the straight down position (90 deg from off)

oops, I failed to notice you have the 4T, rules may not apply.

no warning light, do approx 80 miles and fill up

From my experience the GG gas light accuracy leaves much to be desired. My light works but sometimes I have 10-15 miles of gas left at other times it's only a couple of miles. However, they do push nicely. My manual indicates 2.4 gal from empty but on my last empty fill up it only took 1.9gal.
