what are you doing about the radiator overflow bottle? I'm about to do a tail swap on mine and was wondering where you guys put yours.

I used a plastic pepsi bottle with a quick connect air fitting for the hose.I just have it with those reuseable tie straps attached to the rear frame

I need to come up with something. Been using a gatorade bottle under the gas tank.

BIllyAwsome has actually made a cool setup he made.. He did a great Job

i have the airtech tail and i put a plate across the sub frame onder the big part of the tail and zip tied it there on the plate about 5 inches from the tail light.

i picked up a yamaha banshee overflow tank. i havent installed it yed but other people who have changed the tail say its a perfect fit right before the tail light.

I used a brake fluid bottle with a modded cap I made and mounted on the right side tail fairing.

I made a PVC overflow tank. Got pics in my gallery

Hi,
way back when on another list RCPlayland used a model aircraft fuel tank that fitted nice and square between the frame rails to the front of the tailamp.
Has all the nozzles built in no worry about leaks over your electronics ........................

I remember that. That was a great idea if you have one laying around.

I have a 400 1wg and i've turn it to streetfighter. I've put an R1 '03 tail on and there was no place for the expansion tank. So i bought a used one which was small enough to put it between the forks and lights (behind the mask). I don't know which bike from that was. I just saw it and pic it up. Of course there was no problem with my cooling system.
I think in my gallery there is a photo that shows the gauges and the expansion tank. Take a look at it.

I'll stop by the local hobby shop and grab a large fuel tank... good idea. I got a great deal on an 05 R6 race tail and undertail including stock front seat waiting on ups now
