Hey,

I have an HD Xl1200R with EFI. I just bought a new gas tank(I hated the peanut one) for it. I was wondering if anyone could help me with installing the new one. Secrets, tips, comments, concerns?

Thank you

 

A little more info might be helpful. Like is the new tank from a 1968 Honda, or what?

 

If you're swapping from 3.3 gal (peanut tank) to 4.5 gal tank, you will need the EFI green gasket part number:75301-07.
This will replace the old gasket between the tank and EFI module. Other than that you should be able to reuse the same tank hardware
(nuts and bolts).
I recommend emptying your tank completely prior to removal. (I used the siphon method) Good Luck and let us know how it went.

 

Afraid I can't give any help on this. Actually I would like to know if there's anyway or tank, that is like the newer 4.5 and can be put on a 2000 883 Custom? I'd like to have longer run time on my bike as I love to take trips on it.
