September 21/2008 Metamorphosis, my Fueltank-Setup : Durbahn-Design into OEM 1098 Design.
Just a few Steps, most things are already prepared.
The Situation at the beginning, my 1098 Fueltank Setup, in front the Monocoque + my Fueltank Cover OEM Design
Next then I added the OEM shaped Fueltank ( - Cover ) .
All in all the Conversion did take 2 Minutes, in the end weight wise it does not matter what you choose, as the difference is not more than 800 gr. ( or 1.87 lbs )
September 20/2008:
Test today how long it takes to implant my Fueltank into a OEM 1098.
I removed:
OEM Airbox with Throttlebodies
Cooling fluid reservoir
Lower Radiator hose (incl. Thermostat and front cylinder Radiator hose)
the front Cylinder Water-bypass-Screw (it needs to be rewelded to an L-Shape)
