@rchydrozz751 That's a very good point that hasn't been mentioned yet. Thanks for pointing that out.

@@ForTheLoveOfWheels you're very welcome. Thank you for watching.

@adamdumas7310 watch a video like, "how to adjust dirt bike carb" 2 screws need adjustment. Easy, watch one of those videos.

@@adrianmarcinczak2104 the trip in that video was approximately 325 MI in one day

@@dualsportdiary1150 thx 💪🍀

Excellent tip. This has got to help someone out there. Thanks!

@@leerjet18 yeah it's crazy how many people do not know about it. Especially the mainstream ones that are in the industry that should know this information.

IMS does not make one of themselves. Acerbis makes one, but I do not know if they're interchangeable. Thank you for watching

You're very welcome bro. Thanks for stopping by!

They all fit different, even from tank to tank of the same model. Mine required a few bad words and extra time off camera. These plastic tanks are Rotational molded, not mold injected. Each one can vary. Most important thing is the cool off out of the oven (mold). They all shrink when they come out. How slow/fast they cool is the (one of the) determining factor. They can twist/warp during that cool off process. Ironically after this installation I supervised a Rotational Molding department in a large plastic case manufacturing plant. While learning the ropes a superior to me mentioned my motorcycle in this video and told me how the tank was a Rotational molded product. Consider them hand made. No two are exactly the same. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@dualsportdiary1150 I am pleased to report that after a week or two of just being installed on the bike, the tank seems to have settled into its intended shape and everything fits as intended. It's not hitting the cylinder head on the petcock side anymore. The plastics are able to be installed with the original screws. It's wild how drastically it changed shape all by itself. All that was required was a little patience on my part.

That's awesome. I'm happy I helped.

We learned way too late in life haha. Thanks for watching.

@@dualsportdiary1150 I’ve done crazy looking at different research on this a few times and then after I just watched this Video from a guy in the UK about all the rest of the different Fastener heads up pretty good taking all the other stuff out there

That is great. Thank you for watching.

Excellent I'm glad that I could help

Thank you very much. I'm genuinely happy that I could help you and others.

It's insane we went all our life without knowing this. Thanks for watching.

Thank you! Much appreciated. Ride safe Sir.

That's interesting. A quick search shows it's for wood and boat building. I'll have to look into that some more. Thanks!!

You're very welcome.

That's great bro. I'm glad it helps.

Beware or cheap knockoffs.

That's interesting info. Thanks for sharing that.

I am absolutely glad I could help. Thanks for watching.

Sometimes the simplest things help the most. Thanks for watching.

Oh wow. You got my attention! 🤣

@dualsportdiary1150 😆 🤣 😂 Look up Vessel ball drivers and you will see what I am talking about. I took a automotive class in highschool and I went through a carpentry course after highschool, I am so shocked that I just now found out about this. The Vessel screwdrivers have a ball at the end that pops off and it's a very small stubby, for the ratchet one's. They are definitely different.

@dualsportdiary1150 I got the screwdriver in yesterday with a 3 different double sided bits and they really do hold onto phillips screws very solid. My Honda motorcycle actually has these JIS screws, so I am so glad I never tried a phillips yet. My Makita gold bits kinda fits, but the Vessel really holds onto them. Thanks for your video.

Absolutely. It makes a difference for sure.

I can't be positive without seeing it. But, it sounds like a vented cap should work for you from what you're describing.

@@dualsportdiary1150 You mentioned something able being smog compliant, I wonder if that why they made this system. Thank you for your response

@@dualsportdiary1150 I just watched another video, I think the correct term is vacuum petcock. Do you know if I can replace that with a gravity fed one?

@mrdrivebytrucker Yes you can, I replaced my vacuum petcock with a manual petcock.

@@dualsportdiary1150 Sweet, thank you very much for answering my questions

Awesome glad I could help. If it's the vent hose you are talking about, it goes to the top of the gas cap. If not let me know and I'll guide you thru it.

That's great! Thanks for watching.

The stock Petcock is vacuum operated. If you turn it on and disconnect the fuel line the gas will not drain out. The only way to do that is remove the petcock from the gas tank and let all the gas just fall out and dribble all over your motorcycle. The method I used is the easiest if you have a vacuum operated petcock. You could also siphon it out if you choose. I opted for the fastest method

Spread the knowledge. Thanks for watching.

To my knowledge, no. I have always gone off sight when looking at #1,2 or 3 Phillips. Thanks for watching.

@@dualsportdiary1150 thanks to you guys on yt I now know the difference between #1,2,3. I notice when using a #2 screw with a #2 Phillips bit the screws seems to strip half the time especially when the screws are soft metal. It seems like the bits are too pointy even tho they’re supposed to fit flush and this makes it strip. This just started happening lately over the past few years. It’s so annoying that I’ve been thinking about using different kinds of screw head that holds better

That's great. I'm glad I could help you.

@@dualsportdiary1150 was there a gasket on the petcock

Yes there was

That is very interesting and shows exactly what I was trying to convey as far as this is a little known thing that we should have known. Thank you for that input. Also thank you for watching.

@@dualsportdiary1150 For sure! I appreciate simple short clips like this to teach us what exactly I needed to know!

Thank you Sir. Glad I could help.

All models. Thanks for watching.

Basically I've used looks alone to identify all the Phillips sizes. I just look at them and know which size based off the screw head. I guess it's natural and I have no guide to go off of.

Can't beat it. Stick with what works.

Live and learn. It's good info that absolutely should be more widely known. Thanks for watching.

Seriously! You summed that up pretty good.

bit like Harley shops that dont know how to fix a Harley .................................................

Thank you Sir. Please share and spread the word, not necessarily the video but even word of mouth among people you know. We all should know this information. It's not as mainstream as it should be.

It handles it perfectly. Ride is perfect, steering, swerving, etc is just fine. The only thing with it (or any dual sport or dirt bike) is front end wobble with aggressive tires with lots of knobbies. It's commonly known as "dual sport wobble" if you search it. With proper gearing like I had in this video, I can and I have sustained over 80mph for extended periods of time. For about an hour and a half to two hours non stop.

Thank you Sir. It absolutely makes me happy to be able to help anyone. I'm honored to have a video that has helped so many. Best of luck with your installation.
