    230 Gas Tank

    by iceman80403 » Wed May 30, 2007 2:05 am

    Does anyone know of a gas tank from another bike that fits the 230f? I do some long distance riding and would appreciate a larger tank. I don't think there is an aftermarket tank for the 230, but I know Acerbis makes 2 types of auxiliary tanks.

    If there isn't an aftermarket tank, then you have to carry some extra or get one of those front plate or rear fender auxiliary tanks. You stock tank should be good for about 100 miles.

    That's according to Dirt Bike.

    I rode 80 miles and only put in 1.3 gallons afterwards.

    With a 2.2 gallon capacity, that puts you over the 100 mile mark with ease.
