5.2 that's pretty good, mids 41 lbs capped off, pretty good.. would you put crash pads on the vulnerable spots or? another advantage is they do not rust... looks like it would fit my SRAD 750 FI, anyone ever try?

I imported the wrong pics, this is a TL1000R tank - not found any buttons on the site that enable corrections.
K4 tank weighs 5.0 pounds, unk in regard to crash pads, dropping the K4 tank on a SRAD frame it does not follow up front by the air ducts well and is narrower toward the seat, and the tank front bracket is 20mm wider than the SRAD frame holes (would require a new bracket).

That looks more like a ETI kevlar tank instead of a carbon fiber tank. Do you know who the manufacturer is?

It's been a while but I seem to recall that CF is brittle and requires a bladder and/or Explosafe fill.

Beater still sells them in aluminum, but for $2,600. I briefly spoke with ETI many years ago about one of his tanks with a different fill cap but he wasn't interested.
