I had hoped someone might have done a conversion putting a larger Nomad or other Vulcan tank on and could provide instructions. Not a big issue just exploring options.

called jerry cans.......lol........I used one on my trip back from Drift In and left it with a road crew once I was done with it and did not need the space taken up. But I am sure now that my 2 red cans will get me through most any place to a fuel point. This summer I will test that idea out.

I wonder if someone sells something like drop tanks they use on fighter planes.

I've seen auxiliary tanks, but there are usually two main issues that come up with them.  First is where to put one.  Eliminating the goats bladder and then locating it there with some heat shielding seems about the bast place I've seen.  The second problem is that with fuel injection, the fuel system is pressurized, so that needs to be contended with.

  There was a place that was doing tank enhancements but it was close to $1000.00 per gallon. There is a site for add on tanks.

My Drifter is a 1999 with the smaller tank. I have been looking at options for increased fuel capacity. Has anyone ever put a larger tank on their Drifter? Anyone know what tank options are available that do not require any major mods to the bike?
