Handy thats good your not effected by the lift, but I dont see how a tank lift will increase tank capacity? Hmm maybe your tank sits differently on the backbone? Either way by lifting the front up higher it decreased capacity for my tank simply cause the tank is no longer sitting parallel to the ground. Definitely worth it though cause I have noticed a significant decrease with engine temp while the wind blows right over the heads

 

I like this mod it shows more of the engine and if you can squeeze more fuel in the tank thats even better

 

got the kit on ebay. on my dyna and on my rocker. looks great.

 

did you have to use the new fuel line and vent line that came with the kit?

 

I did.

 

I never considered the tank capacity before. But I can see where it might present a minor problem for EFI bikes.
If you lift the front that will lift the fuel pump pickup (being toward the front) higher in relation to the bottom of the tank.
While you may or amy not loose total capacity, or in some cases gain a little, your sure to loose some of what a pilot would call 'useable fuel'.
How much that might amount to will largely depend on how much you lift the front.
An inch or so isn't going to be much, but past 2" it will start to have a greater effect in direct relationship to the amount of the lift.

 

Is there any one that has done a 2'' lift on a rocker with a conversion kit to see if it would give the lines of the bike more flow? If so would you post a pic.

 

Not sure if its true, but i've heard that its easier to burn up your fuel pump when you do a tank lift on an EFI bike also.

 

Why would you believe this... the fuel remains level inside the tank... the pick up remains the same...

 

what affect would all this have on the "remainder" display on your guages to show you how much further you can go before pushing? and has everyone else that did this have to change the lines? the kit on ebay sais they include the new ones, but you shouldn't have to use them...
