Gary Out of wonderment, just how much of the 6.6 gallons in those tanks are useable without having to lean the bike over? I remember years ago getting a larger Clark tank for my DR350 and it would only do about 1/2 gallon more than stock without laying it down to let the gas spill over the hump.

Andy, From the looks of my new IMS, I think the last 35 miles will have to be done in 'humongous wheelie mode' or climbing out of a REALLY deep, steep ravine . . .> Out of wonderment, just how much of the 6.6 gallons in those tanks are > useable without having to lean the bike over? > I remember years ago getting a larger Clark tank for my DR350 and it > would only do about 1/2 gallon more than stock without laying it down > to let the gas spill over the hump.
My IMS took 7.2 gal. the first time I filled it. It has taken 7.1 on a couple of occasions without tipping the bike. I don't think there can be much gas in the ears.> Out of wonderment, just how much of the 6.6 gallons in those tanks are > useable without having to lean the bike over? > I remember years ago getting a larger Clark tank for my DR350 and it > would only do about 1/2 gallon more than stock without laying it down > to let the gas spill over the hump.

Thanks Gary So were probably looking at 7 gallons useable without having to tip it over? Got my DL1000 about where I want it (15,800 miles last year testing modifications ;0))) so time to start getting the KLR ready for my retirement. Heck only have 22.000 miles on it in the last 8 years so it's got many many miles to go yet.
