No! you have to move the battery,ecu,fuse box ect, if you lookat Dallas's bike I did that one, it's a bit of a fiddle to do it properly.

ps. you also have to change the pump if it's a carby tank you are useing, & do some thing to support the front end.

Oties bike also has a 748 tank on it, you have to move the items Chaz mentioned, plus remodel the underside of the tanka little, a good mod.

Re-model is Crhis' polite way of saying hit multiple times with a hammer.

No idea who the hell Otie is though!

But yes, a great mod and I'm glad we took the time to do it.

something \I may do for next year. I have an SS tank and pump in the garage, and as there is a little less of me, and fingers crossed back sorted soon so by March next year a LOT less of me, I should be able to manage the higher tank. \makes much more sense for using your knees etc

No. It is 4.5kg of Aluminium loveliness! There was a carbon one available though.
