Thanks guys for all the useful information! I don't think I'm going to do a tank change...I'm leaving the first of June goin to Illinois from New Mexico. I think the best idea is probably the Reda tank for me. I can get around 180 miles on a tank but would like a little extra so I don't have to make quite so many fuel stops. The Reda would give me that little bit of insurance to maybe push it a bit more to the next station... Anyway, thanks again for everyone's help!

Back when I rode a Valkyrie many riders complained of not getting enough distance on a tank of gas. Someone developed a small add on tank and called it a belly tank. I remember being at a Valkyrie rally where they were installing belly tanks. They had so many people wanting them they couldn't install them fast enough. I wonder if there might be a similar thing available for Harley's.
