getting more fuel in the tank?

[sinto607276]

What source? Curious to see who advocates holes in tanks!  :eek Anyway, isn't that what breathers are for?

On my old Fazer, I used to roll the bike gently from side to side to "slosh" the fuel when filling. Did an OK job at getting the air out, I could always overfill the tank. That said, I filled while sitting on the bike - my logic being that's how the bike sits most of the time on the road.

No Chris, not drilling a hole in the tank, I'm merely asking about drilling a hole inside the neck on the filler, it should make the escape of air easier as you fill the tank, as from what I gather, when you fill to the bottom of that tube, there is still room for about another couple of litres, but to fill it 'sloshing' about as you put it takes ages, this was done on bikes before I'm sure, although I'd never done it.
But I'm sure I read it somewhere on the old yuku site, I've tried searching but not getting anywhere fast :-(
