I ran the F2/3 fuel line straight onto the F4 fuel tap, the f4 fuel tap is prettymuch the same as the f3 tap but faces inwards for some reason, I'll take pictures tommorow or maybe even a video of the install.

The red screw is were the original f3 tank attached and the other 2 holes are simply for the F4 tank and then at the back of the tank it just bolts threw the holes in the frame.

Ok, well that is simple enough. I like the finished product so I may have to give this a shot. I appreciate you taking the time. Good luck with the rest of your build!!

The bike looks sweet! i was thinking about doing something similair and came across your post. just got a couple of questions that i hope you can help with it would be much appreciated.

to put the tail on did you only have to cut out those brackets?

and is it LED lights you got on it or normal lights?

I do realize this thread is quite old as are the last posts, but has anyone tried using a R1 race tail?

I just bought one off of ebay for cheap and rarely ride 2up so decided to just get rid of the rear seat and run the race tail. I'm trying to find some pictures if anyone has every done it, but I can't find any. I'll post pics when I'm finished with the product.
