Re: Larger Fuel tank
Why not just fill up with as much petrol as you need or are you just unhappy with the physical size of the tank?
If you are dead set on getting a new tank IMS and Clarke make tanks with the fuel capacity your looking for.
I have the Clarke 4.3 gal or 16.3 litter and am happy with it, other than when you get to the bottom of the tank you have to turn your bike on its side to get the fuel from the left side to the right were the petcock is.

Re: Larger Fuel tank
Also could always add tank foam to the bigger tank, that way it will not move you around as much will lesser gas in a big tank.

When on your XRR, does it feel like your humping a Roo?
