Has it always been like that? How about the gauge? Does it work properly? Or is it off?

Dan - I'm not sure your 93 has the same connector at the bottom of the tank as the 97. A round white plastic piece the wires for the sender and the pump go through. There are connections embedded in ... |

Could be a few things. Was the tank full? Bike on the sidestand?

If anyone is concerned about using brake cleaner, I suggest Mass Air Flow and Throttle Body cleaner - they don't affect plastic, and evaporate very quickly. |
