Re: Tank swap n db (was a Little nippy)From: "Ken McIntosh" <mac11b@hotmail.com> Next Article (by Subject): Tickets on sale for 7th Annual Kansas City Sportster Run !! Erica Hawes Gained quite a bit since I went from a 2.25 gal to a 4.2 gal. The most I was ever able to pour into my old 2.25 was just under 2 gal, and that was after having tapped reserve and coasting to a stop at a fuel station. The old tank had a neck in the tank that the gas cap screwed down into I suspect limited the amount of sloshing and thusly spillage out the vented cap. If I did fill her up all the way and the parked it I would get fuel loss out a drain tube. The new tank does not have the neck in the tank so I suspect I will have to either not take off like a B.O.H. on a full tank, or work out the appropriate fill level to prevent the problem. Maybe there is some kind of insert or something out there. Like most, the bike is a work in progress. Ken '94 883 Bike is parked for the rest of the week as we are expecting a lot of fog and rain in WI. Next Article (by Subject): Tickets on sale for 7th Annual Kansas City Sportster Run !!
