Bigger Gas Tank Available? (Read 535 times)

plafferty2008 YaBB Newbies Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 15	Bigger Gas Tank Available? 06/19/11 at 21:19:48 The gas tank on the Savage is too small for multi-day rides. Does anyone know if a larger tank is available?

Reply #6 - 06/20/11 at 07:53:50 True, but then there are those (including myself) that make a lot of short hops and, wouldn't you know it, the one time you're really in a hurry, you need to get gas.

Reply #8 - 06/20/11 at 10:19:13 I think this would be a great "just in case" mod. For those of us that have pulled the air box, put in the small tank and most would likely mistake it for an oil bag anyway. I am strongly considering this one.

Reply #14 - 06/20/11 at 12:42:52 All of the Chinese Honda knock-off scooters I've worked on use a ..............vacuum operated fuel pump. And so did the Hyusong 650 I rejetted for my friend. Since the Hyusong is a copy of a Suzuki, you could do it with 'stock' parts.
