In a bike, the center of gravity changes. In a car, it feels heavier and more stable. Recently ran the bike till the tank emptied, and I didn't feel any difference in pull until the fuel ran out. So you were correct, @zipzit. | |

Happens with the bike even before and after it has been freshly serviced and a carburetor tuning done. In my question, I linked to a youtube video where another biker says he can feel when the bike has low fuel. I'm talking about the same thing. I can feel the difference. | |
