    GS450T tank swap to E or S tank

    I am curious what needs to be done to swap out the tear dropped shaped 450T tank out for the more boxey E/S tank. Looking at the diagrams of both tanks it appears the E/S tank mounts different at the rear of the tank. Is there a big difference in length? Looks like I would just need to make a new bracket for the tank.

    I figured this would of been something asked before but I could not find it in the search results. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Ryan

    Hey, welcome to the forum (he,he, beat BassCliff to it). As to the tank, there may be other frame and seat length differences as well, like on my 850L, nothing that can't be modified with a good grinder and wire feed welder used judiciously, of course. I still haven't located a tank I want to replace my small tank so I haven't done it yet.
    Oh, there are a few more of us GS riders in MN too, closer to you instead of being way up here in the now thawing 'nort.
