    Boyd tank for sale

    I bought the boyds tank for my 818R and as awesome as it looks, I really need to go with a fuel cell. If anyone is interested I can easily bring it to factory five for those picking up their kits at the factory. I paid $638.00 for it, would like to get $500 firm for it delivered to FFR. Guess it could probably be shipped with your kit too if oked by FFR.

    Of course it is brand new and not installed.

    Even better than the holiday sale when I got mine! Fact5racer, you might want to clarify if it has the options (sending unit and rollover vent) I assume it does given the price.

    Can you have a bladder made for the Boyd's tank?

    The Boyd tank is welded and thus you would have to do a major redesign to be able to get a bladder in this tank

    Yes fuel cells are expensive, my challenge car cell is more expensive than the 818 cell, even replacing the bladder on the challenge car cell is almost 2x the 818. Expensive sport as they say
