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

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

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 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.
