    XS 750/850 Special gas tank

    Anybody know the capacity of an XS 850 SG fuel tank? It looks larger than the 11's tank. I have one I might be able to make fit, if it would be worth my while.

    Come on GURU/MODERATOR, you should have known this!!

    Hey John,

    According to the SERVICE DATA page on the Yamaha Parts Fiche site, :
    850 SG 17Ltr/4.5gal

    1100 SG 15Ltr, 4.0 gal ! !
    Surprising that Yamaha put a larger tank on the smaller engined machine, and vice versa!

      The difference appears to be in the depth and shape of the tunnel. The 11's is deeper and wider. I never thought to look at Yama Mama's site. I didn't think they would list the capacity. I did some research at the Triples Forum, and all I found was a magazine article that said it was a 5 gallon tank, but I wanted to verify that.
