tank

Hi guys. New here and have some stuff to contribute. Thanks for helping me with this issue. 2011 FE570 CA street legal anyone installed a front Safari Tank? see my pics below. 1. the "fuel block" that you install on the stock tank interferes with the wiring harnress, and I can't force the...

2001 fe650 with a Clarke tank. I have a set of wolf man tank panniers to go on and it seems like they will block the holes on the sides of the tank. I'm wondering how much this will affect cooling. It's going to be used for dual sport rides, not single track. Ido I need worry about cooling...

My first post on here gents... I have a 10' model fe 390 which I think has horn wires hiding under the tank which I want to get at to fit the horn which was removed when the bike was new for racing I guess. How do I get the tank off this bike (it has a cooling fan fitted)? Idiots guide please...

After two hours of hard riding in mountains we stopped on top of hill for a breather. I was frustrated as my idle started creeping up and up while stopped and wanted to see if I could adjust. Upon stopping I noticed my vent was whistling so I was curious if I was building excessive pressure in...

Hi All, I know the boys at 70 degree racing were having problems with the new injection molders. I was wondering if anyone has received one of the new tanks? I have had one one order since Early December. I am sure the wait will be well worth it. Does anyone have any information on this issue...

So I'm getting a 2011 570 S and I was thinking about making a spare fuel tank out of the stock exhaust and mounting it on the left side of the bike. Figure it might hold a gallon and would look like the bike has dual exhausts. I'd make it so that you could pull it out and fill the gas tank...

I recently purchased a 2011 FE570 and looking for options to increase the mileage for some longer rides. I went on a ride this weekend with Sierra Neveda Adventures, http://www.sierranevadaadventures.com , and I was the one asking where's the next gas stop. These are the options I have found...

Im after a black tank for my berg to fit the 08 rad scoops Does anyone know where i could get hold of one ? Cheers phill

Hello Everyone, Just wanted to let you know about troubles I am having installing a safari front tank on my 2011 FE 570. Drilling the hole in fuel pump case: 1. The temple appears to be wrong. If you drill the hole where the template specifies, the tap ends up blocking the bottom right fuel...

has anyone dyed their tank black, seen someone on Thumpertalk dyed their yammy tank black. looked good.

So I had this idea in my mind that I wanted to paint my clear tank to black to suit the bike better. But when I figured it might not be such a good idea if the fuel vapors breath through the tank, I just decided to check filter condinition on fuel pump assy. I unscrewed the front part where the...

Well luckily I haven't painted my yet. Or I would have, but a friend of mine stopped by today and was asking wtf I am doing. He told me the tank material is something that no paint or adhesion promoters would stick, and it's so porous that gas fumes will breath through it. Well I knew that the...

I've got a clear tank for my 2003, so that and the shrouds are taken care of. But is there a white front fender, headlight shroud, and rear fender-numberplate available? Crossover to KTM? Looks like some of the small KTM dirtbikes might have the same rear fender. Also looking for a blue seat, or...

This is something I have used successfully several times. With all of the tanks being plastic, a small puncture from a tip over while miles away from home can be a real problem. I often ride long distances and come in to fuel stops on almost fumes, so losing even a few ounces of fuel can...

Been riding KTM's (still am) and wanted to try a Husaberg as a dual sported trail hopper. Purchased a '11' 390 Saturday and installed a fan kit yesterday. Then... read about the white contaminate some had in their tanks and figured now is the best time to pull and flush it (before getting mud...

Hi guys, on my blog i just posted a series of pictures of the new rear 15 litres Safari Tank. For the Dakar i will use the front and rear Safari Tanks kit, i used them this year in the rally championship and always worked great and also after my big crash in Australian Safari they showed that...

I shall not say how but I have a leak in my fuel tank just over the shock and I badly need to repair it so I can race this sunday. can I have your tips and latest products list please on curing this? thanks! :D :D regards Taffy

There are a lot of trees in Western Canada, and I seem to have trouble avoiding them. Recently, I ripped the shrouds off my 390 in a particulary violent yet ultimately unsuccessful attempt at deforestation. The shrouds ripped the nut inserts out of the tank, and I don't see them on the parts...
