Can I change the gas tank on a fuel injected Harley Sportster?

There are after market companies making cutom tanks, but the expense is not worth it. Figure about $1k for a custom TANK not tankS, about $500-1000 for paint to match the bike, about $1000 for custom fabrication to mount the tank and you will have $2500-3000 wrapped up in it.

Even with a hi-flo air cleaner, exhaust and tuning, the bike will average around 40-45mph, so a refill every 150 miles is not bad....it's average.

A definite word of advice, any and all HD parts and accesories, including Screamin Eagle performance parts purchased and installed AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE are covere 100% by the factory 2 year warranty, any time after time of prchase, you will get 30 day warranty max. Also, do not settle for a simple Stage 1 download, have the Sceamin Eagle Super Tuner installed and have it dyno tuned, you will get more hp & tq, it will run cooler and better, longer. The difference is like night and day.

Harley Sportster Gas Tank

I'm with clasqm, work with what you have to save yourself a lot of frustration and expense. A good painter could two tone the tank in such a way that it would appear smaller than it is when viewed from the side (black top and border on the side with a white center the shape of a peanut tank.) If your bike is fuel injected, you're going to need a return port at the tank as well as the outlet. You'll also need to make sure the return has a check valve.

It's all relative, guy. My 1200 XLC has the 3.3 gal. tank so your 4.5 would look pretty righteous on my '01.

Thanks to the "V-twin Doc" I learn a little something with every post.....
