expansion bottle and where to re-site it!

Post by 1992divvy »

hi peeps tis I again! can anyone tell me nicely where to stick my expansion bottle if I decide to cut down my seat fairings to give it a more up to date look? I've seen it done and its the only bit leaving me puzzled! now do I need a different bottle or do I need to 'fabricate' something? any help or guidance would be great as it is running great at long last and now I want it looking good too! cheers all,del.

Here: this guy in Brooklyn cut his rear fender (which i think is what you are talking about) and used a bottle for his expansion tank;

cheers pn, I get the idea,find a space and use it! does it matter if its lower than the rad,cos I know a gpz600 has one in the belly pan under the headers! may get away with a smaller tank under the pillion seat if I can find something,ps thanks for the help on the carbs,oh its so nice to ride again! del.
