'HRC' Style Overflow Bottle

Post by alexwitham »

Could someone give the pro's / cons of using one of these? I take it that it replaces that fat old tank on the rear r/h/s of the bike?

Cheers,
Alex

Yep that's about it, nothing more to add.
And the pose value.
There was a thread on here ages ago discussing the relative merits of differing pop bottles and the cheesy jokes are not worthy of repeating.
How hard can it be?

Could someone put up a picture of how they have placed the bottle and where the hoses go etc.

Thanks,
Alex

i took the right hand headlight out on my castrol bike and put the HRC bottle up there, i only did it cause the standard one was too bulky and it was stressing the RVF shaped seat ( and me ) everytime i took it off or put it on.

on the black bike i kept the standard bottle as the tyga seat fits around it better
