Suzuki Intruder Fuel Tank Swap With Honda Rebel Tank! This looks almost stock and fit very easily so this may be a great affordable option for those also in this situation. The idea behind this swap was to save some money while getting a new fresh tank on the bike to replace the rusty stock fuel tank that was beyond repair. The original tank had caused a lot of headache last year with trying to overcome the corrosion it had inside. A mixture of fuel filters, fuel pumps, and multiple carb cleanings still left the bike unreliable which we cant have.
The fuel tank was chosen by the bikes owner on a roll of the dice which has definitely paid off. This tank went on very easily with reusing the original front mount and only needing to make a simple bracket out back. I did need to make a new bung for the fuel petcock which is to be expected. Overall this was a very easy swap with no fitment issues to make adapting it any harder than it needed to be. It is rated at 3.4 gallon but I feel has a useable 2.7 due to the angle it sits at on this bike. On a bike with stock suspension it would hold more.

The petcock used came from Lowbrow Customs as I had it from another project:

The rear struts did have to be modified to fit but are linked here: https://amzn.to/3xlWANT
The handlebars also took some modification but fit: https://amzn.to/3NPldcP

I hope everyone enjoys the video as this was a fun project to finally complete so my friend can enjoy it! All parts used are linked in the description so be sure to look there first thing. I had some extra fun with the montages and music because in the end my videos are better when I enjoy making them. I know the music and talking will upset a few and if that's the case, take this as an opportunity to lighten up and just bob your head to the beats while I work. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming!
