Yes, they both are two different products... But this got me to thinking. Can you put them both on the same bike is you squeezed the top of the Nomad under the Safari?? What kind of mileage would that get you?
:faceplant: There is no "unmerge", but hopefully I did a reasonable job at separating the 2 threads that I merged.
"Can you put them both on the same bike is you squeezed the top of the Nomad under the Safari??" The fuel would weigh more than the bike. You would need "flammable liquid" signs on the bike....LOL
it looks elefant Terra. hororo, pretty well. Mileage now?? both tanks are conected?? how do you managed? the result is fantastic.. even same colour as stock.
holly mother of tank! Now that's what i call a TANK! But i must say, what an incredibly tasteful job they did of the design lines, not to mention color match. Excellent job! That thing loaded should help soften up the suspenders a tad! I think i like this a lot!
WOW if that whole bottom half under the body line was flat black it would look a lot better and not so slab sided. They make good stuff but that looks HUGE. What is it like 22 gallons?
So much for the alt rider guards working with it. Looks like I will need to mod the SW ones I have too but.....WANT IT!!
Probably not. but these are plastic and can split. Certainly not worried about cracking up the rad though....
I think that's part of the appeal with the big un'. Serves multiple needs in one. 'One' mother of a tank! Certainly like the idea of the coverage. Way more weight than i'd ever want to haul when full. For the Aussie and Africa market, major appeal. Maybe a tad on the large for the US? Anyone know the dry weight?
All red, red/black, either way it looks better than that goofy Nomad tank. The white in their mock-up pic (post #1) looks the best
Actually I like the " look" of the Nomad tank much better. Softens the aweful Manga lines of the Husky styling. But the Nomad has been put off now until October and then who knows when, so obviously not a priority for them. So I guess I will be a Safari tank buyer. I have a Safari tank on the DRZ and it is a good unit so not really a bad second choice. Besdies I don't really look at my bike...I ride it.
http://www.safaritanks.com.au/home/Latest/new-husqvarna-terra-tank-available-soon.html Increases the total fuel to 30 litres (~8USGal), so an extra 16L (4.2USGal). I like the look a lot more than the nomad whale mouth. I agree about the black lower half would make it look better, or even a decal to break up all the red. Nice big canvas for a white H logo
Have been advised by Safari... Estimated Availability = mid October. The capacity is now 18 litres + 14 litre stock tank = 32 litres total.
