I have a 98 CBR600 F3 and was wondering if there is a larger, perhaps different gas tank that I might be able to put on my bike. I'm in the process of modding her and was wanting to get a larger, perhaps different shaped tank. Anyone done this or know someone who's swapped tanks on one?

 

why do you need bigger tank?????????/
i believe it has 4.5 on it now.

 

cuz I want a moded look and I'd like to get a lil more gas I guess. Lol. i like the tank that teh Ducati testastretta has

 

well im sure someone here can give you better answers than me but with the right mods anything is possible.

 

ya. tru. I just put a 2 port usb charger on her yesterday and tomorrow I'm swapping that out to a 4 port. I'm tryna find someone to gimme help with a f4i gauge cluster conversion. you got any mod ideas I can run with?

 

sorry not at all, im new to bikes. just got my first street bike, picking her up sometimes this week.

 

First, why do you need 4 usb ports? How is two not cutting it? There's a good write up for the f4I swap on a cbrworld forum, google it. The one thing to remember is that you have to ground out the pink wire coming off the new gauge. Its on he writeup but on page 4 or something

 

they make a plastic/fiberglass race tank, although id bet money it holds less, costs more, and is a bitch to get looking right.

since there is no fuel pump on the tank itself, pretty much any tank will work as long as it mounts correctly.
you can use the f4i tank if you want, and bypass the fuel gauge and whatnots just fine, however you will need to make a mounting bracket for it.

if you're gas conscious, id recommend lowering your main jets, easing on the throttle, and re carb syncing your bike, as those alone will give you a few more per gallon. proper air inflation of tires, proper chain and proper lubrication will wake your bike up more than you think.

 

@hootie233 :: i dont know why I need 4 usb, lol. I know that 2 is plenty so I may just leave it at that. And after a bit more digging I think that I found the write up.

@spicymeowmix :: is the f4i a bigger tank?

 

not sure.
streetfighter88 would know.
he did the mod himself.

you're not gonna find much bigger tanks out there... and honestly i dont know why you'd need one?
