Well, George is real close on his tank solution. There is a thread over on the 4st forum and I don't know how much attention it got, so I thought I'd mention it here. I talked to him this morning and there are just some plumbing details to finalize. One of the neat things is he got IMS to put nutserts in, so the stock trim can be retained. http://www.cafehusky.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15810
I'm guessing the cost will be substantial? (I know, you pay for what you get and it looks well done) Adaptable to other models?
I didn't ask him about cost today, but several weeks ago his estimate didn't seem "substantial'. Good question. I am under the impression it could be used on all the FI bikes that use that style pump. Maybe George will chime in.
On further looking at it it appears it is simply a solid box for the stock fuel pump to reside in. Nice. http://gallery.me.com/glangston1#100455
Xcuvator, Your post is titled "big tank for the 610/630" Do you know that the ims tank will fit the new 630 and save the grafics peice? I am about to buy it and install the external fuel pump myself. I won't put an ugly Safari on my new 630.

I should have said: 610/630, cuz I did know. I like the idea of retaining the stock trim too. George should be back from the trial run by now, so it shouldn't be much longer, unless major changes are in order.
Hi Been trying to contact Uptite by email through website But computer issues wont allow . Does anyone know email add. And any news on fuel pump housing . Cheers Hayden.
X-Q VTR: and all those looking on: I bought the IMS tank for the 630, It did not fit, but it was close. I bought a new plastic gas can with the heaviest similar plastic and practiced with a big heat gun to get the feel, and pressed in the areas which were obstructing the fit.
