Welcome to this wondeful place. Any photos?

Does have a fuel light, although on a journey like that you will need to plan your fuel stops..
I hate to be the one to ask the obvious question: you did check it correctly with the bike completely upright and not on the side stand?
This doesn't sound right. Sounds like it may have water in it? Does the bike have a service history? I'd be checking and changing both of the brake fluids also...
