Hi everyone,
Can someone help me? I'm adding a Tour Tank to my pillion seat. I have a 2005 BMW R1200GS. It'll be gravity fed. I read on another forum about someone else's experience doing this. They drilled a hole into the white flange on the right side of the petrol tank and installed an L shape pipe which ran back to the auxiliary tank.
I'm nervous about doing this even though I can get everything I need from Summit Racing. I have since read that the fuel return line which goes into this flange is able to be tapped into with a T-joint.
Does anyone have an opinion as to whether this is a good option or not? Is this pipe under pressure, and if so does that impact anything that I'm wanting to do?
The picture I have attached is from the web, but it might help explain what I want to do. Any help or advice appreciated.
Cheers
Alan
