I risk but the result is nise

 

Hi do someone knows for sure that t100 tank and t120 are same except colors anf badges? Because to photos shows different the t120. I know that have the same capacity but i think they are different. I find a t100 in good price and i want to mount it to my street twin. Thank you

 

a good read as we never know whats ahead + having multiple fitments makes finding parts easier. manufacturers save $$$ with multiple fitments as well! its amazing the great mpgs newer bikes get + i dont check as its better than anything else i own!

 

Hi
I’m hoping to swap my 2016 ST tank to a Thruxton tank or Thruxton style tank - any ideas are very welcome.
Thank you
John

 

Street Cup and Street Twin are the same bike with different seat, handlebar and gauges ;-)

Anybody know?...

 

Resurrecting this thread again, again.

If a T100/120 tank fits a Street Twin with no issues... then how about a Street Cup?

 

Resurrecting Again - Speed Twin

Any chance of fitting a speed twin tank on the street? Probably totally different, but you never know!

 

Totally different sizes

Speed and petrol (gasoline) are tied together. The faster one go's the faster they both go.. :grin2:

I'm really happy to report that my bike is averaging 65 mpg (that's 54 on your smaller gallons). The big tank of the T100 gives me an easy 200 mile range, never really tried finding the limit - pushing 500lb motorcycles along the road with empty fuel tanks is a job for a much younger man.

 

When I had my x-pipe on I rode like a maniac and got in the mid-40's for the 300 miles I lived with the noise.

I'm closer to 50-52, I ride lots of 25-35 suburban/city(not new York City or Washington DC city) and much less highway. I don't think my smaller rear sprocket changed that in any meaningful way fwiw.

well i average 62 mpg on my st which is an easy 180 before fill up , this includes hard acceleration the occasional ton up runs and highway at 70 to 80mph , if you need to get that extra half gallon of fuel mileage out of it you could just baby it alittle more , when i ride with a local scooter club and we do side roads easy acceleration and tops speeds 50 to 60 mph i,m amazed that i average 75 to 80 mpg on those outings. so thats easy 220 miles before fill up ,
If you need that peace of mind that you wont run out, I,d get one of those MSR fuel bottles and strap it in the leather carry harness , fits nice along side the seat and makes a cool accessory.Ofcourse if you have money to spare , go for it.

What is your highway to city percentage? I am almost never on the highway and average 41 MPG lifetime on a 2017 ST.

 

Don’t forget the original tank is a very saleable item too. Loads of folks drop their bikes and tanks are pretty vulnerable. I got a new tank for the ST-R, but would have paid really good money for a ‘used’ one.

 

If I ordered the tank at the time of purchase it's likely my dealer would sell the tank to me at cost like they did parts/accessories for my last Triumph I bought from them in order to seal the deal.

A half gallon is just enough for it to be worthwhile to me, barely.

I use the MSR bottle setup on my dual sport and it's an annoying way to barely extend your range. Although, it has saved my bacon on and off-road more than once (as well as other riders in the group).

Make sense, how much did it cost for the tank for the striple?

A little under £600 (GBP) I think. I bought so many parts for it that I don’t remember exactly! The insurance company would have totalled it, but I rebuilt it using a mixture of new and ‘as new’ used parts.

 

You need to swop your existing pump across to the new tank, matey. Don’t know about our twins but I had to put a new tank on the Street Trip when my son crashed it and there’s a removable panel in the bottom of the tank. Can’t imagine the twins being any different.

 

How much did folks pay to get the larger tank? Also is it right of me to assum it is plug and play for the fuel pump which I expect is in the tank?

New T-120 fuel tank is ~$825 usd plus shipping.

I,m the opposite , would like to put the bobber tank on my street twin .lol

 

Would swapping tanks (ie, different capacities) mess up the electronic gauges / calculations with regard to fuel level, miles to empty, etc?

 

Possibly. Several people have done it but none here I take it? The low fuel light wouldn't change if it's the old float style but the miles to empty calculations could.

hey everyone

Do you guys swap the tank at the dealers? And will they do this without any issues? Or do you have to purchase another fuel tank?

The extra fuel capacity sure comes in handy when travelling. I really like the look of the larger fuel tank on the bobber - almost temps me into buying one...................

 

So if I'm reading this correctly, you can swap a T100/120 tank into a Street Twin or Street Scrambler without any issues?

That extra half gallon capacity is a big deal when using the bike to travel long distances.

-Jake

 

The T120 & T100 tanks are identical except for paint and badges, 3.8 gallons each. The T120 & T100 frame cradles and sub frames are also identical.

 

Street Twin/Cup/Scrambler/ all share the same tank, so you can freely swap between all of those.

 

Street Twin/Cup/Scrambler/T100/Bobber all share the same tank, so you can freely swap between all of those. @TriRocket3 would have to share what crazy stuff they might have had to do.

Great point there.

I did it to my blobber, you don't know till you try.

Was it a simple, straight over swap, without any extras or modifications, or was more work and things needing to be changed involved?
