    The other day I was up at Zip Ty Racing and saw a Big 3 gallon tank that fits the 449/511.
    It is a extra tank that works along with the stock tank.So with both tanks filled you would now have a total of 5.5 Gallons.That should be enought for any dual Sporter or Adventure rider out there.
    Here are a few pictures I took.for more info contact Zip Ty Racing 760 244 7028

    I dont think my arse could handle that much time in the saddle of my 449!

    Very cool though, it looks nice too!

    While that is way overkill for my needs that pretty sleek looking for packing 5.5 gallons

    Here we go again. You 449/511 guys seem to be a little sensitive I'd say.:)

    We are very sensitive .....and thoughtful and intelligent and otherwise all around wonderful folks:oldman:

    I havent done any street time to see what I think of the gearing, but I have no intention of riding it more than an hour of so on the street, and never on the freeway. If I wanted to do that I would have kept the Buell.

    What range does the 450/511 have stock? I keep going back and forth on a 511 or 650 as my next bike.I want something that 100 +mile days are doable.

    65-90 miles depending on terrain, rider, conditions and state of tune. 90-120 with the nomad add-on tank.
