    I went with the Clarke 4.7 gallon tank, a range of 340km/ 211 miles, there is no need to move the signal lights. mounting instructions easy to follow. after seeing what you had to go through I'm happy iI purchased the Clarke !

    Thanks for the video. It shows just what a pain the install can be!
    I just installed this tank today (07/04/2024) on my XR650L. I used Sil-Glyde (NAPA), a lubricant, on the factory rubber tank mounts. The tank slides really easy over the mounts this way and no modification to the mount is necessary. That does not mean it is easy to install! I still had to use a ratchet strap on both sides to get the front mounts bolted up. I also ran my fuel line on the right side in back of the carb so I didn't have to deal with the cables. I fit the fuel line on the left side the way you did.
    Enjoy the ride!

    I didn't cut the bushing pins. They are fine as is. I used a ratchet strap to pull the tank down into position. Also, just move the turn signal up one bolt hole using just one bolt to hold it to the bracket. You'll need a spacer on the bottom bolt as it will be too long now. I used a larger nut as a spacer at the bolt head. Or get a shorter bolt. Good Video!

      Yeah it is kind of stupid that it won’t fit perfect. After the install I will say it is very nice not worrying if I run out of gas when I’m on a long trail especially if I’m exploring and don’t know how long it will take to get out of the trail.

    I bought a used Xr650l and they put this goofy looking 5 gallon plastic crap tank on it😖the plastic fades and it looks like an ol milk jug so I try to find the stock tank on line NOPE they are all over priced and beat to crap , if you a large capacity tank buy a motorcycle that comes factory with one! I’m stuck trying to buff it and trying to get some graphics for it, the keyed cap keeps people from tampering, I guess you’re stock tank will go into the twilight zone and the next owner will be stuck with a big ugly pink after it fades gas tank.
