You will end up cutting it into blocks to get it into the tank, what size blocks depends on the tank and its entry points

Gravity I would imagine Paul, Just been looking it up myself now you have mentioned it. Seems a great addition whilst my tank is off the 996 and the pump is out. Push it in and mould it in it says.
·ELIMINATES FUEL STARVATION UNDER HARD ACELLERATION, CORNERING AND OFF ROAD SITUATIONS.
·ELIMINATES FUEL FROTHING.
·REDUCES RISK OF EXPLOSION IF TANK CATCHES FIRE.
·REDUCES THE DISCHARGE RATE OF FUEL SPILL IF THE TANK IS RUPTURED.
·ELIMINATES FUEL SLOSH AND UNWANTED WEIGHT TRANSFER GREATLY IMPROVING RIDER STABILITY WHEN ITS NEEDED MOST.

I usually pack it in using the biggest Chunks I can squeeze through the hole, although the size does depend on where in the tank they sit as sometimes the front of the tank can be quite shallow
