It's not a big job ( direct replacement ) and if you do the air gap mod you'll get around 24 litres in there.Baz.....whats the air gap mod?
I did this on my Mk1 Fazer which I put the 2002/3 Foxeye tank on. I got to 297 miles before it ran out.
Having said that the fuel low light was on for around 125 miles. I asked ( on the old forum ) what turns on the fuel light and no-one knew. It is not switched on by the position of the float, I got to the assumption that it was switched on by the petrol not making a contact across the guts of the sender ?
HTH... BazĀ
