Been thinking about this for the Xpect too.

Looking down at the air flow guides around the tank, I’m realizing they could have added at least 50% more fuel capacity if they made all the dead space in them into more fuel tank.

The middle piece where the fuel cap is is the tank. The side pieces are hollow plastic airflow guides.

Those could House a LOT more fuel.

You guys are tougher than me. Lol. They've got 3.3 gallon tank, and depending on how you ride you can get 40-60+ mpg....so about 165 miles on a tank. I am so ready to get off mine way before then and happy to stop and fill up. Lol.

You might add a tank to the rear rack?

My Magician is usually ridden off road, and I have run out of gas twice. After the first time, I added a burrito tube that contains a 1 liter fuel bottle. That has been enough to get me to a gas station. I wish it had a 3 gallon tank.
