Speaking of the crossover line, does anyone know of one with quick connects in it that will eliminate the leakage when taking it off? It sure is a mess to deal with.

Those are nice. Very impressive that you did it with the tank on the bike. I have the hd one. Removed it a few times when pulling the tank and had to replaced the gaskets - .49 cents at dealer.

You may wish to get a quick disconnect feature so when you need to remove your gas tank you do not get gas all over the shop and you. You eliminate the danger of catching your bike and you on fire. A quick disconnect stops the flow of fuel from coming out of your tank. The way you have it, you must drain the fuel tank prior to removal. Disconnects do just that. No need to remove the fuel.

5/16 inch fits Touring models.
Older models and/or Custom tanks may vary.
Very Compact…less than 5/8” diameter and 2” Installed Length
Overall Length is just under 3 ¼”
Double Shutoffs…Disconnect and Remove Tank with Fuel Remaining
OR… Easily Drain Tank of Fuel (using a second disconnect set)!

well you get the idea

That would be useful. HF pump $4. The tank is easy to move around when empty.

Want to buy a used one as it worked only a few times on gas. They are junk.

What did you expect for $4. Have used it a couple times, still working. Some people do not like HF - others love it, and for good reason.

Notice how they claim it doesn't fit my bike, hehe. Fits no problem.
