IMS tank = fail

G-Rex · 07-24-2011, 09:36 AM

The stocker is 6.1 gallons. The IMS is 6.6 gallons.

That extra half gallon would have been the difference between me needing to carry an external fuel can or not. I didn't want to, but now I will. Oh well, better than running out of gas on the Dalton.

Too bad the Safari tank isn't out yet for the KLR.

At 8.8 gal., it will be the Exxon Valdez of KLR tanks.

It's also going to cost 600 bucks...

I'd looked at the Safari tanks for the DRZ... 7gal... that's 300+ miles easy.... but also a hell of a lot of weight. I think they also fix the issue of unusable fuel the IMS has (about 1.4gal you need to lay the bike down to use, and .4 you can't use period)

8.8 on the KLR would be what 350miles?
