Yes, there is some amount of unusable fuel; that's true of almost every motorcycle, car, airplane, tractor...fuel tank. It's a matter of a few ounces. If you want to know the exact amount, drain the tank through the petcock until it stops, then either remove the petcock or remove the tank from the bike and turn the tank upside-down to measure the unusable portion.

...Unless you are leaning to the left going 95mph around in a little bitty tight circle, then it's the opposite effect, isn't it?  

I won't put it past Stew to manage 95mph with no gas,...
...but I was imagining tilting the bike at a stop...  

That's the definition of goin' nowhere fast...
