Mine mounts on the subframe behind the wide part of the tail. Right now its just held in by zip ties but it works.

RCPlayland used a fuel tank from a model aircraft I believe you will have to look at the FZRArchive for his pictures

Hey megaloxana, not to hijack this thread but how much acceleration increase did you see out of your 520 / 14/47 conversion

You definatly notice it. I dont normally travel at 145mph so the conversion was nothing but positive for me. Bike overall has a lot more spunk. I would definatly do it again
As promised, here's my home made PVC coolant bottle. I'd tell you guys the exact details on the fittings and such but its been 2 years since i built it. Not hard to figure out as long as you have your hose diameters. Used high strength epoxy to hold all the fittings and made sure it was sealed. Ill be more than happy to take dimensions though if anyone needs them.

I run the same tire.
My coolant bottle is a gatorade bottle right now. I like the PVC idea. I'm sure regular PVC glue would be more than sufficient.

I used to run the pvc tube for an overflow until I got my Sigg bottle. I love that thing.

rage, the gatorade bottle looks hilarous LOL2 Wonder what people think that aren't acustomed to such genius. You definatly should have left the label on there(lime flavor especially). I didn't trust PVC glue keeping my fittings tight and secure.
