What other gas tanks will fit the bike?

Are there any gas tanks other than the ninja 250 pregen gas tank that will fit the bike? Will the new gen tanks fit on the pregen?

It takes a lot of modification to fit a J-tank on an F-bike and the fairings are not compatible.

Been looking into this myself as well... The most important thing I can think of is to measure the front mounting tabs and find something comparable.

Are you wanting a smaller tank? Something that looks different?

My other suggestion is to just start hunting on ebay.

You'd have to cut the frame if you dare fit the J-tank on the F-bike (petcock interferes):

The if the tank from the fuel-injected version is anything like the Ninja 300 then it has no petcock (fuel pump built into fuel level sender). Perhaps the pump can be used with an EFI kit like Ecotrons?
