rear rally fuel tanks....

Hi there,

I'm looking for those extra fuel tanks which hang like a saddle over the back of your bike. You'll see them a lot at rally bikes. Do anyone know the proper name for these tanks, what they cost and where I can get them?

thanks.

greetings,

Roland

what bike do you want them for and what capacity do you want? we had them made by Overland Solutions for our XR650Rs .... 13 litres of fuel on the right and 11 litres of water on the left: http://community.webshots.com/photo/...82465390ZygIpb
they'll be up for sale in the New Year. you'd need to modify the fittings for another bike
