Yamaha 2021-2023 Low Fuel Alarm, Reduced Fuel Tank capacity?

[Wild Thing]

How do you silence the alarm?

by disconnecting it

[Mr_Marty]

I last rode my 22 Fx until it was beeping so long I COULD silence the alarm correctly it would still come back on every 5 minutes to be silenced again. Went about 6 miles like this. I just filled up for the weekend and it only took 12 gallons. Slow fueling and topped off. 12.2 to be precise.

And just like that, comments are turned off. Hope they got the hint.

That's sad. I left my original screen open to take a picture of the comments we did leave.
People should be aware of the caveats of their "features" when deciding.

This is a good result. Its obviously got a knee jerk reaction

And just like that, comments are turned off. Hope they got the hint.

I went on their other videos and added a Comment about fixing the FX issues...

WE ALL need to do this, it will look really bad for them to lock ALL of their videos with no comments...just be respectful with your fix request comment...

And just like that, comments are turned off. Hope they got the hint.

@everyone Yamaha has launched a new you tube video featuring the FX Connext system. Go have a look and leave your thoughts in the comments section. Lets just say, i did not hold back

Thank you. Comment left.
In the end it's more to express my frustration than anything since getting my system updated by Yamaha would be an expensive effort as I'm no where close to a dealer. I hope you guys can the issues resolved. I'll likely need to just live with it.

I finally got the 2023 FX out for a cruise. Did a 45 mile trip after filling the FX fuel tank until I could see fuel in the filler tube. According to my Garmin display that I precisely calibrated I now have about 8 gallons left in the tank. So effectively 4 more gallons to burn. That puts the cruise range at 65 miles give or take a few.

There is no way that 18+ gallons can be put into this tank. I really think 17-17.5 is the most you can get in it.

It’s all from the shitty fuel filler location that Yamaha has decided to use. If the fill was up top under the hood like it used to be then we could actually use the full capacity of the tank.

I’m pretty sure I’ve put 19 gallons in my 2017 GP from a bone dry tank. I stuffed 17.5 gallons into this 2023 FX in my garage. But that was overfilled and fuel pouring back out when opening up the fuel cap later after doing this.
