    Yes, mine does as well. I wrote EBR and they told me to have it repaired under warranty at my dealer. I'm going to try and bring it in tomorrow for the 620 mile maintenance. I'm at 651 and hope this isn't an issue. I don't ride it hard anyway.




    Update. When I dropped mine off at the dealership, the technician told me that he's seen the wires on the sending unit come off. I'll let you know what they find.

    How much did you pay for the 620 service? Is it possible to do some of the small stuff at home to lower cost of service? would that affect the warrenty? (nonexistant warrenty) lol

    The service cost was $155. I told them not to worry about the fuel light as I don't use/trust the light anyway. The only reason I did the service at all was to insure that the warranty remained valid. With the uncertainty of EBR .............. Sad too, this is the best bike I've ever owned.

    I bought the service manual to check into the low fuel light issue. I can't find the sending unit on any of the drawings. Does anyone know where the fuel low level sending unit is located?

    If it's like previous Buells, it's on the fuel pump assembly, which bolts into the right side of the frame just forward of the swingarm.

    Crap! That's what I was afraid of, thanks for the information.

    My low fuel light is now stuck on, too. Does anybody know if you can replace just the sensor? If so, does anybody know the part number/manufacturer. The EBR parts list only shows the entire fuel pump assembly. Thanks

    The sensor is not the problem.
    The cause is is poor terminal crimps for the sensor on the pump assembly.
