You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

Are you just showing how to fit a later 19 litre tank?
Or is it a standard tank that has been modified?

Today really was a day I suffered from the 16L tank, had quite a long ride, first station Would of only been about a fiver so I rode out, time we reached one after that my little elbow was nipping. But alls well that ends well. But my brother found it amusing and kept telling me how his fazer 600 "still had loads left" :Argue:

Im guessing the problem is getting the fuel to flow evenly down both sides?

No, the tap is in the middle at the back, it feeds into two pipes at the tap, so whatever's in the tank will flow out under gravity.
The problem is, there's only 16 litres....
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Hmm, have we gotten our wires crossed?

I was mentioning towards the 19l tank mod and the small linkage pipe that appears to be placed top centre of those pipes.

as long as your carbs are synced it should be fine if they were out of sync one (might) draw more than the other
