LOL I have a 6.5 Gallon tank on my XR650R, never worry about gas.
Clarke claimed on the phone with my dealer with me standing there they were working on a bigger tank *shrug* I emailed Clarke they said NO. I emailed Safari and they said not enough customers in Australia to make a shrouded tank.
I might recontact some of these people. I really would love a large tank, I don't race so having a 150 mile range would just be nice for tooling around the Forest. Right now I have the MSR Dromesdary bag 6L and it fits fine in my small Wolfman bags with 1.25 Gallons of fuel. Maybe I'll do a video to show sometime if the testing out in Moab goes well. That will give me around 98 miles, two bags 130 miles. Still though I rather have a shrouded tank.
I'd pay $500-$600 to have a huge tank. Justgastanks said the Clarke 3.2 I think it is might fit...but I'm not paying $$$$ for a little improvement.
