As I am taking the Indy on a 5000 mile trip across europe next year I thought it wise to get a larger fuel tank made....

original 20 litre tank



New 46 litre tank



A little different...



And fitted

Can't you put the smaller one in front of new one, and above "axle", just under 15 gallons then

Forgot to say the tank only cost £100 plus postage

hi

There does not appear to be any baffles welded to the front and rear faces. This may lead to the tank panting which in turn leads too the welds suffering fractures. Make sure there is sufficient 2 way venting to keep the panting to a minimum as large tanks suffer far worse than smaller ones.

enjoy the trip we did a 1200 mile round trip to the Ring, removed the passenger seat for additional storage space I dont think there was a space that wasn't used

That's 1 big fuel tank


That would get me 445.81 miles @44 M.P.G
