Bigger fuel tank on XT660X???

Goodday all!! I use my X as my main transport so I really do some kms. I can only get 200km before reserve. I would like better autonomy as I hate to see the red reserve light!! Can I fit a bigger tank, perhaps from the Tenere??? Thanks all ciao!!! Simon

Simon, you can fit a Gili-moto 22.5ltr tank on your XTX.

Simon - I too have the Gili Moto like a few others and it is great value for money. Annoyingly though, the fuel light still comes on rather early with at least 100 - 150klms left . I fill up between 420 and 450k and never put more than 18 litres in it

With respect to the XTZ tank, no joy, check here:

Manneman ended up fitting the Gili Moto as well, there is more on the subject on Advrider, here: Advrider Linky.
