Hi all. New to the site and my new old 2003 1500 Drifter. Picked it up from the original owner late in the season last fall. Spent the winter working on it. Got the first long rides in this last weekend. I really like this bike.

My question concerns fuel capacity. All the specs I find online says 5 gal. Running it from full to empty, warning light on twice. I was around 155 miles each time. Filled it up with avg 3.7 gal according to the gas pump. So, 40/41 mpg. Not bad for a 1500cc really.
But if the tank was really 5 gal, I would expect to get closer to 200 miles on a tank full at 40 mpg.

So to my question. Does anyone know what the actual size of the tank is on a 2003 1500 drifter?
