V7Goose Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 I'm sure it is possible, but I'd have to look at the existing tank to see if it was reinforced or specially shaped in any way for the current one. But I personally do not feel it would have significant value. Under most riding conditions, the fuel on the right side continues to slosh around as the tank gets low, eventually letting virtually all of the fuel be used. I know this is a fact since I have had five or six different times when I was able to add more than 5.8 gallons, and once when I put in something like 5.96! Only when just droning along on a straight, level and smooth road have I run out while I suspected there still might be gas remaining in the right side. Goose
