Rick‘s gas tank with 18.5 L / 4.88 gallons Capacity !!
Nearly all V-Rod owners around the world know about the problem that you
have to look for the next gas station, soon after you left. Rick's has the answer.
The Rick’s V-Rod tank has a capacity of 18,5 liter / 4,88 gal. Which are about 4,65 liter more than the OEM V-Rod tank. So you have a higher range of roughly 32 – 35%.
The gas cap and the electronic fuel pump can be used like on the OEM tank and the opening mechanism can also be used like usual.
Only some modifications on the protection plate under the tank are
necessary , but for this we deliver detailed installation instruction.
The tank is delivered black, not painted !!
