Oversized fuel tank?
I recently got a TT250 and I want an oversized fuel tank. Does anybody know where to get one?
I'm also looking for a wind screen. |

Have you tried Acerbis ? they make a range of plastic tanks that fit Honda's it might take some measuring but I think they may fit the TT250 ?

I have looked also. I finally gave up. The tank size depends how far you ride off grid. If only occasionally then there's rotopax cans. Even a big Gatorade bottle works ok. But it comes down to how much weight your comfortable with. If you need Gas for that much distance you'll be looking at water and fuel for you too. Before long aww dang you've built an ADV bike.
After 140 miles or so my hands and butt needs a break. These things weren't designed with comfort in mind.

No one makes that for such a budget bike - I have seen a tank that MAY fit and I do have that tank but can't be sure

Finding these aftermarket upgrades made specifically for a chinabike is tough. Experiment and see what works.
I found a universal tank that's designed to attach to the front forks modified bolt onto my rear box. Drilled anhole and installed a petcock and plumbed into the stock fuel line. It holds 1.25 gallons. A universal rear saddle tank was an option too but would have had to remove the rear box. Acerbis makes both types of tank however I found mine on Taobao for around $10. My wind screen was sold on Amazon as Duke 390 screen and I bolted it to the stock headlight fairing. Works fine and looks fine for about $20.
