Hello Ryan, and welcome to the forum. I'm sure you can find a tach for your bike, but a gas gauge. That's what you have "Reserve" for. Good Luck.

Unfortunately a gas gauge isn't possible without doing a lot of modification to your gas tank itself.

As far as the gauge lights, perhaps swap them out with brighter LEDs?
