Dakota 5.1/4 gall Tanks

5.1/4 gall Tank

A lot of people don’t realize there were two other tank optional sizes available for late Springfield Chiefs, the largest pictured above is very noticibly wide on a machine with a “strainer strap” to support the extra weight of the fuel off the original 3 point mounts. The 4.1/4 gall is more attractive the gap between the filler caps off the dash is not as noticible & it has not the “strainer strap” of course if you are contemplating buying a set from Iron Horse Coral remember they are now welded and you will find sometimes your gear change lever will need to be different as in some cases it is a tight fit on side of your oversize tanks. Your webmaster has a set of 4.1/4 gall on the Vindian and they are great for distance touring
