    Can someone post the dimensions and a picture of the FF "Stock" fuel tank? There are two manufacturers of them locally and if we can't find one that's ready made near those dimensions I'll contact them and see if we can get a batch run.
    Thanks!

    John - you offer a very clear- headed discussion - thanks. I think the best thing to do is to install a fuel cell which passes all criteria. Do you know how fuel cells are approved (i.e., do manufacturers have to submit samples for testing/inspection, or can individuals do so)?

    Sgt.Gator- depending on your goals, you may wish to get the dimension of the Boyd's tank, since the stock one is (I believe) an 18 gallon unit. The Boyd's is 10. I guess the former would be desirable if you were running enduros. See below.

    Another thread here stated that Boyd's would not be producing fuel cells. I called them to discuss that, but they are closed until Monday.

    Since Boyd's won't be doing them, and since their tank seems ideal otherwise, does anyone out there know the exact dimensions of that tank (so I can have one made by a shop which makes cells, such as ATL)?

    Thanks
