Nice, I have never ridden an XR with a big after market tank before. Does the fuel slosh around abit putting you off balance when in the tight stuff?

Re: Johnny Rocco's BRP Gallery
It really isn't an issue, with me at any rate. It does add a weight bias as you can imagine, which results in the front end staying planted. None of the skipping and hopping of the front wheel you'd normally experience under acceleration with the stock tank. It's the way to go for big day rides, especially if you're in the middle of the desert or miles from a Pemex that 'might' have gas. The boys nicknamed her the 'Supertanker'.
Hope to make it over your way in the next year or two for a tour.
