Don't need one and it's expensive anyway. I don't even have a fuel light on my bike, so here's a method that only costs what you'd normally spend when riding around anyway:

Most bikes can manage 120 miles before hitting reserve, so you just zero your trip meter each time you refuel and keep an eye on it.

For a more precise measurement carry a spare can of fuel and go as normal until you hit reserve (refuel from the can at this point, just to be safe), then note the tripmeter mileage, round down to the nearest 10 and use that as as your benchmark. Then just refuel whenever you're getting close.

Also carrying a spare fuel can is always a good idea when going touring or on long trips.
