#(Way too) accurate fuel simulation

I would like to see (or rather hear) the engine stalling when the bike runs out of gas (or even power losses moments before): on the last portion of gas bike loses throttle, the engine revs down, but on some point before idle it cuts off, unlike current algorithm, when the engine keeps revving despite losing throttle.
I would also eager to use the starter (one more suggestion - add starter sounds to more vehicles) in this case.

i feel that this post is a perfect visualization of this meme cause it is too true

Now, more than year later I am still bikeless, so I still drool over running out of gas, since then I have literally collected a couple dozen of videos of sportbikes running on fumes and hammering the starter afterwards, but since recently I have started digging into the details of the stall and... the carbureters. Why?
Because they bring such imperfections like coughs, stutters, bogs, gummy throttle, all day long and, more importantly, on demand, which wouldn't force to burn the tank down, as is the style of the EFI ones.
Now, once again, I am fully aware of the scale and complexity of the feature, which might just turn out to become an inconvenience to most players (except me) more than realism or anything else.
But the dream, a sick one, still lives in my head rent-free, so let it keep public at least as a quirk suggestion.
