Whitbread Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Not the prettiest thing in the world but it holds 2.5 extra gallons and works great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrMeyer Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 6 pack rack and another gas can back there. I can get a 2gal in my raptors 6pack rack. Or you can look into the 5 gal ims tank and so on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRed350x Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 6 pack rack and another gas can back there. I can get a 2gal in my raptors 6pack rack. Or you can look into the 5 gal ims tank and so on. I used a 3gal spun aluminum tank off ebay and took a 6-pack rack and cut the bottom rails off the rack and welded on new mounting brackets for the tank onto the 6-pack rack. I use a shutoff valve under the tank, then a filter then it feeds into the back of the front tank. I run my dune bike on methanol and get more mileage out of my two tanks than the stock banshees do on gas with just the front tank. I aldo did the same thing for the tank on my R6 raptor. The factor air box and carbs sit under the front plastics so I moved the tank to the rear just like my dune banshee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
