Reserve tank not so reserved

Soooo.....I've been curious as to how many miles my cb750 can get out of a tank of gas so I figure as long as I have the reserve tank, I'll run it.  Got to 170miles and it sarts sputtering so I switch to reserve....no change!  Put a gallon in and it ran fine!  Why did the reserve not function?  Any clues?
