If Triumph's main reason for not providing a fuel gauge on the Street Triple was so that people would not damage their own engines by running out of gas then why would they offer fuel gauges on some of their models and not others? The reason is simply that they wanted to sell this bike as cheaply as they could. I do not hold this against Triumph. I researched this bike and decided to purchase it as it is. I would however be very happy to have spent a little more to cover the cost of a fuel gauge if that was an option.

I dislike walking and pushing enough to fill-up before I am on empty but I like the convenience of a gauge.
