FAQs
Is this tank compatible with all motorcycle models?
No, this tank is model-specific. Please verify your bike's make, model, and year against the part number 0011607.090.700 to ensure compatibility.
Does this tank come with a new fuel cap?
Generally, Acerbis tanks are supplied with a model-specific cap. Ensure the provided cap is secured correctly to prevent fuel splashing.
Can I use this tank for daily commuting?
Yes, this tank is suitable for both competitive racing and daily riding, offering more convenience by reducing the frequency of gas station visits.
Will the increased fuel weight affect my bike's handling?
Yes, a full 13-liter tank adds weight, which will slightly shift the bike's center of gravity. Adjust your suspension settings if necessary to compensate for the added weight.
How do I ensure there are no fuel leaks after installation?
After installation, add a small amount of fuel, verify all connections are dry, and watch for any weeping around the petcock or fittings before heading out.
Troubleshooting
Fuel leaking from the petcock/fuel tap connection
Verify that the rubber seal or O-ring is properly seated and the fasteners are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque.
Tank is difficult to mount onto the frame
Check for any interfering aftermarket components like oversized radiators or guards. Ensure the mounting brackets are correctly aligned before pushing the tank fully into position.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Acerbis fuel tank should be performed with the motorcycle engine cool and in a well-ventilated area. Before beginning, ensure the fuel lines and petcock assembly are clean and free of sediment.
- Drain the existing fuel from your stock tank safely.
- Carefully remove the original tank, noting the routing of vent hoses and fuel lines.
- Position the Acerbis tank onto the frame mounts, ensuring the fuel pump or petcock clears all electrical wiring.
- Secure the mounting hardware firmly, but avoid overtightening the bolts to prevent stress on the mounting points.
- Reconnect all fuel lines and check for potential kinks or leaks before filling with fuel.
To care for your tank, periodically inspect the mounting hardware to ensure it hasn't loosened due to vibration. Clean the exterior with mild soap and water, avoiding harsh solvents that may degrade the plastic over time.
