Great video ! You made it look easy 👍
It really was a lot easier than I thought it would be. Thanks for watchin
Frank, thanks for all the videos. I wanted to give back to you for all the enjoyment you provide. Arizona is awesome, we were in Williams last year and saw the Grand Canyon, so incredible. We want to get out there again soon, maybe we can get a ride in. Thanks again
That is awesome! Thanks so much Dave! I’m happy to help!
It would be great to get a ride together!
When I ordered my flatland radiator guard I already had the Acerbis tank so when ordering the guard there was an option for the hardware for a Acerbis tank.
Ah that is cool, I don’t think I had that option when I got my radiator guards but I wasn’t really planning on the tank at the time.
@WOODZMAN when I was ordering there was a disclaimer somewhere that said if you have the Acerbis tank to let them know in the notes when placing order.
cant wait to get mine
You will love it!
Nice , thanx for posting 👊💪
You’re welcome Dave, The tank is pretty sweet! Fit and finish is really nice!
Thanks for watchin
Excellent man. Well done.
Thanks for watchin, Juan
What an awesome video, thank you for taking the time time to share Sir!
Thanks for watchin!
I have had many bikes and after market tanks over the years, and this looks to be the best one I’ve seen. They were smart to send you a tank to do a video because you are so good at it. Great product, great video. Well done Sir.
Yea I was impressed on how easy it was to install and how good the fit was. After the install I was really impressed at how it looked. Best I have seen.
I installed an IMS tank on my old CRF250L and it wasn’t nearly as nice as the Acerbis
Neat installation! Very informative video. Thank you!👍
Thanks for watching, Fabian
Excellent tutorial video 👍
It’s an excellent tank, thanks for watchin
Well done!
Thanks for watchin
Thanks for your you tube. I couldn’t have fitted my tank without it!! Cheers Richard
Your welcome, thanks for watchin
I have the same rank waiting to be installed on ‘23 CRF300LS.
Thanks for putting out an install video for this project!
Your welcome, John, Thanks for watchin
Great video. Thank you.
Thanks for watchin
Wow, that looks better than I thought it would! It would be nice to have the extra 1.5 gallons. Great install video.
Yea after I got it installed, I was super impressed at how good it looked. The fit and finish is perfect.
Acerbis nailed this one!
Thank you, this was a very well done installation video. You covered all of the more difficult parts at just the right level of detail and pace. Thanks for making this install a piece of cake!!
Your welcome! Thanks for watchin, Ash
Great video showing good detailed information. The best I have seen.
Thanks so much. Glad to help
Great video, shows all the steps and details. Thanks, I am about to install mine!
Sweet, you will love it
Excellent, unusually thorough explanation - without skipping aspects of it. Dishwashing detergent makes a good lubricant for installing rubber grommets!
Thanks and thanks for watchin
I find those rides relaxing. Seeing what speeds (in gears) those CRF300's do on various surfaces with those soft, long-travel suspensions is highly instructional - to me. Given all yours and your sons' tire complaints, I'm wondering when you're going to spring for at least 50/50 tires? fyi: Kyle Bradshaw (RUclips's most popular tire-review guy?) proclaims Bridgestone AX41's to be his 'favorites' for BOTH on/off road.@@WOODZMAN
‘Simple if you know what you’ are doing” You do not pull on the yellow part out on the fuel connector. Yes push in the little clip on it and then PUSH the yellow clip IN and not out. In and it will release with ease. Not need for needles and anything other than a small driver to push the small release clip.
Thanks for the detailed instructions, my install went great!
Thanks so much! I am happy to help
I bought the tank after watching your review. this is a great video for instruction on how to change it out. they were sold out on crf only, probably because of your video. I picked it up on rocky mountain atv at a cheaper price. I'm in san antonio, I haven't found a good place to ride trails here yet. but since the world is ending I should be able to ride anywhere I want soon enough.
I installed the tank today. Your video was great. a note on the little C clip on the fuel line. you do pull it out slightly to remove the line but if you pull it all the way out, you can install the line but the C clip won't go back in. the C clip has to be partially in when the line is pushed on , then you can insert the C all the way back in.
@TrustworthyExpert awesome, thanks for watchin
By far best video on how to do it well done regarding the tricky connector to unplug the service manual suggest to after pressing the white tab to push down instead of pull up in that way the black retainers undo themself
Yea and I tried that but it wouldn’t work. It may on some, I just couldn’t get it to.
Great video
Thanks for watchin, Jeffrey
Excellent video! This was very informative and was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
Your welcome, thank you for watchin
Good video Frank, thanks. That tank looks great on the bike. Don't know why Honda doesn't do a bigger tank from factory, kind of annoying.
Thanks Mike!
Yea I was super impressed at how it looked once I got it installed. Acerbis definitely nailed it!
Thanks for watchin
Thanks so much for another wonderful installation video, I've missed them! Your attention to details and super helpful little tips that you learned, is the best available, and made all of the Africa Twin and CRF300L upgrades super easy to perform. I've been putting off the Acerbis tank install, mainly due to the gas cap, but now you've got me thinking again. I'll miss your videos when it comes to installing things on my 2024 Transalp. So far I've only mounted Barkbusters VPS, Garmin direct-to-battery power line, and am waiting on Kaoko Cruise control and Outback Motortek crashbar/skid plate set to arrive. You do great work.
Wow you are getting the Transalp fixed up!
I don’t mind the gas cap. If you’re talking about not having the lock, I guess I have just never worried about anyone ever messing with it. The tank is amazing, I love it
Thanks for the reply Frank! An opportunity to get the Acerbis tank installed for free came up, as I’ve burned up my engine on the CRF300l, by installing an oil filter backwards, then putting 6k miles on it! The engine work is costing $2,500! That hurts. But after my mechanic repairs the engine he’s dropping in the new tank (now $249 at rocky Mt) for free!
Be careful installing oil filters!
@PeterVred I haven’t done that yet but I have seen it done before, it sucks
@@WOODZMAN Getting OLD sucks...my mind plays tricks on me. I've installed lots of CRF filters, don't know why seeing the "hole" on the filter facing me looked right.
BTW, got the old Africa Twin up for sale, to pay the upkeep on the newer bikes. I really want to hang on to it, as it WAS the most amazing bike I ever owned. But I know now that the CRF300L is the most useful bike I have, it comes first.
Great video Frank. I wonder if this fits the 300LS model. Thanks
Oh yea the LS is exactly the same!
Wish there was a locking gas cap option.......
Great video, to the point -- just the facts with no fluff.
That would be cool, Thanks for watchin
You can buy a locking cap from acerbis separately
@@thegreatmoa I've seen the locking cap from acerbis but where do you do with the airvent hose?
Very nice video. Installed myself last year. Was wondering if you had issue with proper venting of tank hooked to original line? I noticed vapor build up in tank. I just vent to outside which solved. Your content is always great. Thanks!
I just took that hose off and put a short vent on top of the cap, works great
Nice job. I just bought a 300L and plan to see how the stock tank capacity works for me. I had a Rally that was destroyed and went with the L to replace it because the Rally was a bit too cumbersome off road...I certainly did like the tank capacity with the Rally, though. This is a very simple instal and the panels seem to fit back on nicely. I'll probably end up doing this.
Yea it’s an easy install. I am impressed on how it looks.
Same. So far no problem with the amount of fuel in stock 300L
I believe flatland now has updated their brace to work with the tank or you can buy that piece alone.
Yea, I just talked to CRFs Only and that is what they said. I have one on the way now!
Thanks for the info Joe!
Thank you Frank for sharing this helpful video. I am wondering why the gas line has to be external?
Your welcome!
You mean the vent hose?
The stock tank has a vent hose also it’s just located on the bottom of the tank. I actually took off that long hose and put one of these on:

The correct way and easier way to remove the fuel line is to actually push the white tab in and not lift or pull it out. Then when you reconnect the fuel line it simply clips into place. Much easier and no chance for damaging it.
Yea I have used that kind and I tried it on this one and it does not push in at all. The white plastic tab is bottomed out and does not push in
@@WOODZMAN ahh ok. My did. I wonder if the bikes delivered to the USA are different. I’m in Australia. Great videos by the way. Thanks for going to all the trouble of making them. I really enjoy them b
Thanks so much
I was able to press in the little tab then push the whole white clip inward. The fuel line connector slid right off.
@@WOODZMAN
It does if you know what you're doing.
I guess this 14 L tank is lighter than the oem one?
Thank you for your channel.
Oh yea it’s definitely lighter weight, I didn’t weigh it though. Of course because you add more fuel, it would actually make your bike weight more lol. The tank is sweet though
Nice install video. I have a question re capacity and electronics. Since it doesn't register the extra capacity on the fuel gauge, does it register/change the range or mpg's on the odometer end?
Oh yea that still is the same, it’s just the top half tank takes a while to drop on the gauge so after you uses about 1.6 gallon then it still shows full witch is like the stock tank capacity
What crash bars you got or brand? I have the Acerbis skid plate and wanted to get some that will work with it got the tank installed as well great video.
I have the T-Rex crash bars, they are great! They didn’t fit with my plastic skid plate but because the skid plate is plastic, it was easy to notch them to fit. amzn.to/49b3O9z
@@WOODZMAN Thank you Woodzman can you do a video on how you did yours would be great. Thank you for replying back.
LOL I just made an install video of the same tank. Only difference is my is the natural color and my video is in cue to be released in a couple of weeks.
It’s awesome how the tank fits, Acerbis definitely did a great job with it.
Thanks for watchin
Hi, congratulations for the video, a question, do you have the link to buy the radiator guard? Thank you very much.
Sure do, if you have the Acerbis tank or if you plan to install the acerbis tank, let them know when you order and it will come with the correct mounts to work with it www.crfsonly.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/7590
@@WOODZMAN thank you very much for the advice, very kind, greetings from Italy
@ilmototurismoitaliano your welcome! Thanks for watching
You should slide the small part in when you pull off the fuel line. NOT OUT.
It is really hard connector and if you pull the little part out it is still hard to get the connector out.
Great video but that is the way I learned to use it.
are you saying the fuel like clip stays out when the fuel line is installed and you push it in to remove the fuel line?
@@TrustworthyExpert I think so.
You need to push the yellowgreen slide bit inwards when you take the line off.
New line comes with those slides out.
You can first put line in and then you slide the yellowgreen in to its own place.
The part goes bit more in when you take the line off.
It is small and I actually made tool from fork to make it easier to take off.
\▪︎/ bended two 90 degrees that goes under it and made middle one shorter and so that it push the slide in. Hard to write in english. Hope you get my point.
And I would rather leave the hose to the tank and pull it out from bike.
Greetings from Finland...
Pois ottaessa liukuosa menee sisäänpäin.
Uusi letku tulee liikuosat ulkona.
Paikoilleen laitoin uudet liittimet liukuosa ulkona ja sen jälkeen liukuosa omalle paikalleen.
Tein haarukasta työkalun irrotukseen kun niin pieni liukuosa.
Taitoin ulommat piikit 90 astetta kääntymään liittimen alle ja keskimmäisen piikin lyhempänä niin että sillä saa painettua liukuosaa sisään kun vetää littimen irti.
Irtoitan mielummin letkun jatkossa ruiskulta ja jätän letkun kiinni tankkiin.
\▪︎/ 😜 Honda haarukka
because that is completely counterintuitive to all vehicle design. why would having a 'C' clip out be the position to hold it in place? I am going to go out on a limb and say the C needs to be pushed in after installing. I am getting ready to install this very tank on my new crf300L. I will let you know what I think. I am a mech engineer.
@@TrustworthyExpert it goes bit more in when you take it out.
When installing you slide it out and then lock it in but not as far in as when you push it to remove it out.
Hope I made it clear
What’s your average mpg? Great great video!
My average is 70-72
@@WOODZMAN it’s comforting to know you can get ~225 miles on a tank. Allows exploration!
@americandude3825 oh yea it’s a huge difference over the stock tank, my boys still have stock tanks and when they are down to 1 bar more be still says full tank witch means that I still have about 2 gallons left
Any updates on this new tank? Question does it have a gasket where the fuel pump goes into the tank? Does the bike feel overly top heavy and wont the fuel float level get messed up eventually because its force higher with more fuel? Meaning its flexing more than originally intended.
Love it, it’s probably the best thing I have don’t for the bike, yes there is a gasket. It don’t be any more top heavy to me, but I maybe just haven’t noticed.
The extra fuel is super nice.
Thanks for the great video.
Stupid question but at 7:52 the vent is at the bottom of the tank on the original one. On the Acerbis it's obviously at the top (on the cap)
How can the vent work at the bottom of the tank? There's always fuel covering it so air can't flow? Or is fuel meant to go through that hose and there's a mini reservoir somewhere with enough space for expansion?
It connects to a tube inside the tank that goes to the top
@@WOODZMANOh I see, that makes sense thanks!
Such a pitty that Acerbis did not replicate that tube :(
@Tony-kf8qy I took that link hose off and I just had a short tube with a valve. Works great. amzn.to/3x5hPqx
@@WOODZMAN thanks. Yeah I saw these I might have to do the same. I wonder why they even have a short hose on it, they could just do a cap (that doesn't leak, unlike the locked caps from acerbis).
@Tony-kf8qy I cut the hose on mine as short as I could make it
13min 07s
one way valve connecting carbon can with the tank -> is allowing the flow from the carbon can to the tank - which completely doesn't make sense??
It should be opposite - fumes from tank should go to the carbon can?
acerbis makes a locking gas cap for all thier tanks it 50 bucks though
Yea I just don’t really see a need for a locking gas cap. Some people depending on where they park there bikes may need one.
Hey Frank, will a tank bag fit the new tank?
Fits perfectly! I have some pictures on my Facebook facebook.com/100063455441736/posts/pfbid02uc8vzrzg9T1xTNBjZGaztFnaW4wjDHbgsALnnctY9Y74YHELkaZrx4Xzv5crdnR4l/?mibextid=cr9u03
Thanks, I just installed my acerbis 3.6 tank. Rigg tank bag fit right on it.😊
If you got long distance why didn’t you buy the rally with the bigger tank,or do you just like working on bikes
I just don’t care for the rally, I like for my headlight to turn with the bars. And I just don’t care for the looks of the rally.
Hi, I'm planning to buy this tank but I'm a little doubtful because my CRF currently has a Zeta radiator guard installed, can this tank still be installed on my CRF? Please advise, thx 🙏
I’m not sure about the Zeta Radiator guards, I do know that if you have flatland racing guards the. You order the tank kit from CRFs Only made for the Flatland radiator guards. Basically they dust send some modified brackets for the flatland guards.
Will this tank fit 2018 Crf 250 rally ?
No not at all. They may make one but I’m not sure
Know the Weight difference of the hardware?
I have no idea
I don’t mind the small amount of fuel in my 300L … so far. ;)
I didn’t until I move to AZ
I find Acerbis 3.6 gal tank a bit ugly, needlessly large and not so neatly built. I really don't like the plastic cap that looks the same as those on cheap plastic fuel cans.
The other option is IMS. Better built, better looking, but just too small. 2.5 gallon is too little over stock 2.1 gal. It makes it almost pointless to buy and install.
I wish there was a middle way tank option around 3.0 gal that could fit original tank cap. That would do 200 miles / 300km fuel range that is good enough for most places in my part of the world.
I had the IMS for n my 250L, the fit of the IMS is not nearly as good as the Acerbis and having to put the metal brackets on the IMS is dumb.
I think the look of the Acerbis is great. I would never choose the IMS over the Acerbis again.
Of course everyone has their own opinion.
Always wanted to see a small bike with a big(ger) fuel tank cause of Arizona😂😂
One of the reasons I got me a GS Adventure…😂 Good stuff sir. Thanks for sharing this… Now I may get a CRF and learn how to ride dirt…🫡🇺🇸🌵
Yes the large tank will make a huge difference. I should get close to 300 miles on a tank.
I really think the Acerbis tank looks good on the bike also
@@WOODZMAN it really does!! Great install !!
hello @WOODZMAN Do you know if that tank can fix on CRF250F? @WOODZMAN
No it doesn’t
