Oof. Cutting it close more skillfully than myself. Last time that happened to me, I had to push my 650cc about 2 miles.

Most of my pushing was hill starts on an unintended basketcase of a bike, lol. Though I have certainly run out just before the pump, though not that close!

It started cutting out on the highway when the trip odometer read ~177. It felt like it had dropped out of gear. I didn't realize I was running out of gas for another half mile or so, and I managed to get it all the way to this gas station, sputtering all the way.

It is not pushable, I'd have been walking for a gas can.
