thanks in advance
ZAC

Ben Palmer of Raven performance does them, I think they are just over 5ltrs.

hi Zac, it was us doing them on ebay, they fill from original position and hold 7.5 ltrs,

email us on roderick.jeacock@ntlworld.com
cheers

I can recommend Leon's tank.....nice bit of kit

How do these tanks mount on the bike? I was thinking about getting one from Ben but I could probably make it for what it would cost to ship it to the US.

the back of the tank is bolted through with the seat mount,the front part of the tank is shaped to fit the top of the airbox and just rests on it without being fastened, there is a picture of it on the raven performance website.

cheers alan,
Ours are one piece as tank and skin bolt together and offer about a 2.5kg weight saving,(think they are 3.5kg) cant remember exactly (Alan may correct me if im wrong) and just bolt on as said, where seat bracket is and if wanted at the front of airbox where the little cover bolts, that weight is also including a cap that comes with it, all that is needed is painting your own colour and holes drilling, and a quick release fuel clip as there is no tap on them,

They are £270 + del each but bearing in mind the quality and weight saving, mail me for pictures and also if more than 5 are ordered through here they are £250 plus del bearing in mind there are 3 people interested already.

lead time is 3 weeks from order, but if 5 are ordered this could add a few days on

£100 deposit on order and balance upon completion before sending,

No worries mate....I'm always willing to recommend good kit.

Weight saving was just over 2.5kg although I can't remember exactly. I just remember it being over the 2.5kg you said it was so I thought fair enough and put in on!

The key benefits for me with leon's tank were a) it holds 7+ litres, b) it looks like the standard tank and c) it fills from the snazzy filler cap in the normal place and you can see inside the tank how much fuel you have left.

Leon, sent you an email requesting photos of your tank.

Hi guys, photos are now available, so email to the above address, cheers leon

The tank looks really nice, now how to come up with the cash for a new tank in addition to the motor work for this year's racing season.

Hi guys
Tanks weigh around 2.9kg all in with the cap!!!

just recieved my fuel tank from leon in the post, when i picked up the box it was so light that i thought he had forgot to put the tank inside!
very well built and a good contribution to any race bike, just abit of prepping on the cover then off to the paintshop
cheers leon for your help and speedy delivery
see you in the paddock NG#23

cheers Zac, We have another tank made, ready and waiting if anyone is interested

This thread has not had any more comments since 2011 so a very long time ago

I am struggling to find a website or contact details for raven performance and have been looking for one of these racing fuel tanks for a little while

I am posting in the hope that this may attract some attention possibly and someone out there may have one for sale as a used second hand or better yet have details for the manufacturer in order to buy one for myself for racing purposes

Would ideally look for the 7ltr version as the 5 litre may be a bit small for circuits that are max throttle open for long periods and be able to keep that 2ltr amount in the tank once race complete for technical inspections afterwards
