Title: Auxiliary fuel tank ?
Post by: Charlie on November 08, 2005, 05:12:36 AM

Hello. Does anyone make an auxiliary fuel tank that will fit a 2006 Tiger?

I commute 80 miles round trip per day and am filling up every 2.5 days.

Would be nice to put a second tank on it and only fuel up once a week.

thanks

Hi Charlie.

I remember an article in a motorbike mag many moons ago about a chap who added an extra fuel tank to his Craven top box in order to complete a dawn to dusk run from Lands end to John'o Groats.

But that was in the days of carbs and gravity feed etc. I've no Idea how you could adapt such a system to a fuel injected motorbike.

I have a 4 US gallon aux fuel tank on my '02. I can ride over 6 hours at 'highway' speeds and not have to put my feet down. Ping me if you would like to go into details and I can send you some pictures.
