Steel petrol tank with characteristic design, emphasized by the indented sides.

Sportsters are popular as never before. One point of criticism is the small reach due to the small tank. Rick’s Motorcycles has a tank for Sportsters in their program which takes 3.5 gallons (13.25 litres). A stock Sportster Forty-Eight takes 2.0 gallons (7.9 litres), so that’s more than 5 litres of additional petrol.

The tank fits onto all EFI Sportster models from 2007 and is a bolt-on exchange tank, which can be installed with little effort. It is simply screwed onto the stock holder; original or other tank lids, petrol cocks or petrol pumps also fit. It features a clean, TIG-welded construction.
