Ok... 98 Harley with no factory supplied fuel gauge ., go figure eh.?
There are " universal kits " available where you can install and calibrate your own float etc. to match the included gauge but they are desighned for the automotive industry . I have seen them and they should be applicable to bike tanks as they seem to be small enough to fit into the fuel inlet.

a one piece tank would cost more just to buy even the dented ones on ebay or c list are to much they adding the cost & time to put one in to me is not worth it , I get about 200 miles per tank (5 gal) on my 94 so about 180 miles I start looking a station , my 03 e glide had a gauge & was off a little from day one

If it makes you feel any better, my 03 fuel injected has a fuel gauge and no reserve.
I wish I had a reserve...that gauge is inaccurate so I don't trust it. I use the odometer method, but my mileage changes city vs. highway by 5 mpg sometimes (if I'm on it) and wish I had the comfort of a reserve position...having run out of gas a couple of times.
My point is you're not missing anything not having a fuel gauge IMHO as they are so inaccurate.

You would have to experiment with these units to fit etc.
They are available to google for your particular area.
You can also make your own fuel sending unit for approx. $ 40.00.
Your choise .
Im here if you need any help to do .

My bike does not have a reserve switch either. I'll try something out, though.
