Fuel gauge having a laugh

[Fozzie]

So I went for a wet ride today and the fuel gauge seems to drop from full to empty in no time or miles, I pulled into petrol station and it just needed £12 and I could see the fuel inside. now im thinking fuel sender is on the piss? is this a known issue?, Also it got a bit strangled in the rev range, not sure if it was because of the wet or fuel filter? anyone around the Nottinghamshire area that would be recommended to visit to have a scan on the feeling side? Exhaust is decat, straight through pipes, unknown build. last one, anyone got the Zard Zard Exhaust System in Stainless Steel for Triumph Rocket III on their rocket?

If your clutch switch is shorted then will mess up gas gauge and some running problems.
Best way to check put in neutral and try to start without pulling in the clutch.

Whenever my 2012 Roadster clutch lever sits out in a heavy rain uncovered (very seldom) the bike starts fine BUT . . .
wait for it . . .
Every time I pull it in to shift gears the horn honks!
WTF, but funny as hell

I take it the switch is in the lever? any pointers please

I'll have to do that at weekend, the joys of being away from home. on a side note, if anyone needs nuts/bolts/fasteners my business is based in Christchurch Dorset, Fastener Network, nip in and have a look

When my cousin got married many years ago, I hooked up the brake pedal light in his car to the horn... I thought it was funny too... but he didn't... go figure

So I can't start bike unless I pull clutch lever, which is a good sign, I also checked the cables underneath the tank, they are firmly in. I think it could be the float in the tank, so im going to do a 100-130 mile ride and see if the fuel light comes on.
