Does anyone know where I can get an aluminun oitl tank for my raptor preferably the one that holds an extra quart.

try "La Curacao"

WE MAKE ONE. I WORK FOR R.I.S. DESIGNS ITS ALUMINUM AND HOLD A QUART MORE OF OIL ALSO

how much $$$, Rick??

Do you all do one to match the LE Raptor? If not I am sure I could just have it powder coated.

Manuel, this is the same one that I just put on. It is way cheaper than a stock one.

I finally bought the oil tank. Thanks Wrench. :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

MR,
With a complete oil change it will now take 4 quarts of oil. I just did one last night and It looks great. I am glad I could help you out.

Stone... PLEASE BECAREFUL with that HyperPro.

YEs they are a BIG street Company and they have been plagued with failing seals, but to counter my previous point. From what I hear, their Warranty Dept is REALLY good. I am looking to get a GPR as I have one on my YZF-R1 and swear by it.

I used the PEP first, its ok and for the money its good.  But then I found Hyperpro, way more money, but its a very nice unit.  The mounting and hardware all are top notch, plus overall design are great.  They are a big street bike company and I think make good products.  But there steering stab is nice.  Now I also know there is a steering dampner built into a few companies steering stems/dog bone clamp.  I also run Pro-tapers high CR bend, and those bad bears take alot of the jiggle/jarring out of the ride.  I run those on my shee also, but my shee has a Scott steering system on it.   The stock bars are junk.  Oh and I run the real super soft PWC Ori grips, I know I'm a pansy, I just like being comfortable when cruising.

I am looking to get Spyder Dual Density Grips for mine. Comfort is priceless.

if Manuel hasn't posted for help, it's cuz he hasn't started on it yet

Looks like I have to take the head pipe off

[quote]Looks like I have to take the head pipe off[/quote]

Yes you do. I would also take off the front plastic, gas tank and both head pipes. Pressure wash the bike off, then change the tank out. It will now take about 4 quarts to change the oil. Good Luck. If this is going to be too much for you. Drop the bike off and I can install the tank for a resonable price. Wrench

thanks wrench but I can handle this one just have to find some time. I might need some help with trouble shooting the starts

Is it on yet????????

[quote]Is it on yet????????[/quote]
Yes Its on. Now I have the pipe off trying to get it cleaned up. The tank looks nice!! Very easy to put on. Very happy with it so far. I ended up seeing one of the other brand oil tanks on ebay i sold for 50.00 I guess I lost out on that one.

does it leak?? :shock:

NO[color=red][/color]
