r77toy Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Anyone have pics of an aux. fuel tank set-up for an oilhead Rt? I have a fabricator who owes me a favor. Link to comment
Danny caddyshack Noonan Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 I think someone on advrider.com did one on the top box rack. Welded aluminum. Must handle very nasty in a swerve maneuver. PIO can cause problems. Link to comment
4wheeldog Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Someone makes racks that attach to the passenger footpeg mounts, 2.5 gallon plastic cans for GS models. I have seen pictures on http://www.advrider.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=&f=3 Unfortunately, the search feature is down at the moment. I will try to remember to check later.

LDHack Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Look here: fuel cell I have a similar set up, mouned on a spare passenger seat. The fuel drains by gravity in to the main tank. You have to drill the steel fuel pump/filter plate on the fuel tank of the bike, and install a barb. You can't do gravity feed by T-ing in to the fuel injection pressure line that exits the bike's tank. MikeS Link to comment

szurszewski Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Yep. I don't know which brand those are, but the mount looks like one A and S sells here: http://www.ascycles.com/detail.aspx?ID=2319 then you would mount a peg of your choice (preferably a folding one, like in the pic). I have something like them, but a little bulkier in that it also works as "cylinder protection" ... sadly, it puts the peg in a place that's totally uncomfortable for me (which is about the same place as the one in the pic YMMV).

Fugu Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I can't recall where he got those but yeah, highway pegs I went with the Sparkies- the fold out elf pegs from Sahara. cleaner looking but I think not actually as effective. Also way expensive. Link to comment
