Thanks to Paul from Impulse for making the header, Chuck/Lakeside for the engine work, Chris Banser for the tunnel/a-arms, Murray/Mountain Mod for the hood, cowling, seat, Julien for the tank, Kurt/Wildchild for the steering upgrades, the guy that sold me the track, guy that sold me the mcx intercooler. Darren @ E&S for rebuilding the work shocks. Plus have thank Fuji for all the yrs of putting up with dumb phone calls, cheers Randy!

Got any pictures of complete seat and fuel tank combo. I know after doing wild child mod post and powderlites front mount it cut off 10 liters of original space on the tank and a good day of riding, almost need 2 jerry's.

Not really, tank was just set in place to see what kind of clearance around the turbo. That was my second issue with left of center turbos, the small fuel tank. Its going to take some moding to fit the tank, tunnel will need some adjusting. Reason why I went with it over the rev tank, has return fitting already. There is way more clearance. Not sure what the wildchild post has to do with fuel capacity? Its need for room for the Impulse header.
In your case, the post doesnt matter. The other front mount kits, the bottom of the post hit the fuel tank, so in turn need a different fuel tank with post cut out and front mount cutout. Anyway, if you need a good plastic fab guy there are a couple in red deer.

Really? Guess never seen that, wasnt all powderlite/alpine using the same fuel tank? I used to have a cpr kit, tank was supplied by Alpine. Steering was all stock till couple months ago, only reason I went to wildchild rider forward kit was of the Impulse header. As the Impulse header was made for the apex which is already moved ahead by Yamaha. I took a pic of the Alpine nytro tank, will post it for you to see. There is gap between the tunnel & tank, didnt have any of the seat as it was in the house. This project is 1 step ahead 10 steps backwards. Oh well its paided for.
