    can I put a bigger tank on a 79 GS1000L

    Can I swap an E style tank? will it fit the frame? will the top triple clamp hit a bigger tank? has anyone done this before... Thanks

    Cold Primate,

    I just did the reverse with my chopper. The front tank mounts are farther forward for the "E" tank. You would have to fabricate new ones. You might get lucky, tho. Check under the plastic covers in front of your tank and see if there is a nub sticking out that will accept the front tank grommet. There will be no tank to triple clamp interference if you put the tank in the stock position.
