It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

You have got to find a 19L tank first.

Re: fuel tank
You need to swap over the petcock, and mount for it, as the 19L has the petcock mounted to the frame, not the bottom of the tank...
And you may want to fiddle with the fuel level sender, or RLOD sensor, but that's fairly optional...
Other than that, it's a straight swap... It's shaped slightly different around the bars, so you might manage to pinch your fingers at full lock with the stock clip-on's if you work on it a little, but that's about it...
