Default 6 gallon tank on 07 ultra

Anyone attempted or added a 6 gallon tank on a 07 ultra. I am considering trying this. It would have to be a 08 year I am sure.

Don't want to trade, but I do need or want a 6 gallon tank

It's been discussed here before not an easy bolt on.

I'm not sure you can do this. From 2008 onwards the frame is different

I just posted this on the other thread.

It can be done but with many part changes and welding on the frame. To change the mounting locations for the motor will require removing the motor to cut the old locations and weld the new one in place.

The motor mounting locations were changed along with the location for the coil and a new seat.
The Fuel Tank and seat points mounting points were moved. The seat was changed to make room for the new tank. The seat does not have the same mounting locations. They are not even close.


The 6 gallon tank has made the '08 frame a "One Year" frame.

You stand corrected. 6 gal tanks did not start until 08 models.
