Low fuel light issue - Ducati.ms

To start, I've only filled the bike up about 4 times now so I may not be filling the tank full...this is my first bike by the way.

I rode about 110 miles yesterday on what I thought was a full tank so I figured I was good to go for another 30-40 miles after I got home. No fuel light was on. I go to start the bike today and it will start but will not stay started (and if I give it any throttle, it immediately dies). I can hear gas sloshing around in the tank...so I bit the bullet and went to get gas. I filled the tank up and it immediately starts up.

There is no reserve switch right? It's automatic?

Its still under warranty so I will take it in there and see what they say...the gas light should come on right?

:: btw 2010 Ducati Monster 696

Yes it should, but I wouldn't trust it. Watch your odometer or trip meter, those idiot lights are aptly named.
