All the bikes I've ever had have had fuel tanks that have a huge recesss underneath to accomodate carbs or airboxes so they don't have as much capacity as it looks like they have. Therefore, unless you want to wrap your tank around something airbox shaped it would be an uneconomical use of space I would have thought.

The tank on my blade only holds 10 quids worth which, if I'm lucky, sees me right for 100-120 miles.
