That gives you a theoretical range of nearly 700km

**NordieBoy** · 24th April 2007, 19:48

If the fuel doesn't go stale first

**CM2005** · 24th April 2007, 20:09

if i had a DR....

**NordieBoy** · 24th April 2007, 21:09

They go for >$600 new

**Crisis management** · 24th April 2007, 21:16

I saw the auction and gave it a brief thought, but it's a huge amount of fuel! I have to tippy toe the bike as it is, I'm not sure I want more weight sloshing around up high.

Now, if it was 21 litres I'd be in.

**nallac** · 24th April 2007, 21:20

would've loved the range when i had my dr.fill up every month yeah...

re the xtra weight, you don't have to fill it up.

I'm watching that auction Nordie (FBI) so eyes off!

Unless you are going to sell the IMS then by all means but get in touch.

Cheers R

IF I were to get it then I'd sell the IMS but I think it'll go for quite a bit more than I'm willing to part with.
One of the Aus guys on AdvRider paid $680oz $300nz for his.

Sush - you dont want the seller to see things like that. I expect it will be too much for me too. Still replacing riding gear and fixing bike which is more important than a big tank at this stage. Gona keep watching though.
