i stripped my wave apart yesterday. and noticed the stock fuel tank is only about 1/3 the space of the compartment space given.

 

has anyone successfully expanded the wave fuel tank?

Hmm, heard before that the compartment in front of the tank got people convert to tank but that is done in Johor.

[darkness_gemini]

how ? any idea where to do it ? Jb ? i wan tryy

[arsonist]

alah this topic so many years ppl just tok abt it but nobody really tries to find a real place tt wants to expand the tank. lol

[arsonist]

if it can be done properly why not do it?

if can change to a bigger capacity tank it shud be okay wat.

only need to find some mech who willing to do the project. added weight is not a problem la. add ten litres is like ten kilos

if u gain ten kilos in body fats then i dun think theres much difference in ur wave performance. lol

i'm workin as a delivery rider using wave. and yes its 4 litres. i had a situation whereby my bike totally ran out of fuel. but u can actually pump 4.++ litres ar. see how. aaaaaanyways, my friend customised the space below his seat to add in space for extra fuel. yeah its not legal, but they dont really check that space anyways during inspection. plus. that way it actually made him go more than twice the distance with the stock fuel tank he had.

cool to have bigger fuel tank for wave. however, any idea if insurance coverage is affected when u mod to a bigger fuel tank huh???

[thrasher]

whats insurance coverage gotta do with that mod anyways? its gonna set u guys back ard SGD$250

[arsonist]

thrasher do you think its possible to get a better price if more ppl do the mod?

say 5 ppl = $200 ?? , 10 ppl = 170 ??

maybe i will go there sometime next week and discuss with the person

[arjen]

are the tank gonna replace the compartment underseat or it will be done externally ?

[osjusti]

hi trasher,

 

maybe i was too brief in my previous post.

 

wat i was wondering was, say in event of an accident (touch wood), the bike catches fire (due to the illegal modification done on the fuel tank) for some unknown reason. are u still able to make an insurance claim?

 

kindly enlighten me...
