Looking to get fuel injected S3 tank for a carbed M2. What is different exactly? And will it work? Should I even try it? |

There is no petcock on injected bikes. The pump and other crap will have to be removed. Your float wouldn't like 40PSI blasting through it I'll wager |

Ha, I'm sure not. Is there any conversion setup to add petcock is my question. Or anything anyone has done to do this safely? |

There have been a few here that have installed a carb on a X1. I can't remember what they did to put a petcock on there. |

yes an S 3 will fit you eould need to make your own petcock set up or have an inline shutoff but you would most likly loose the reserve function. An S 2 tank will work also like this

How is the petcock attached? Hard to tell in the pic. |

You could use some type of This fuel tap (but with reserve option) http://www.feked.com/1-4-x-1-4-b.a.p.-type-fuel-ta p-main.html with some seal washers and a lock nut from the inside to. And maybe can use one of the two FI holes to. |

It's a bit expensive but have a look at the pingel fuel taps, http://www.pingelonline.com/prodcat/fuel-valve-ada pters.asp |

Looks like they drilled a new hole for the screen an inlet for the factory petcock then bolted it on. Not 100 percent I have not taken it apart I know the reserve works ok to get fuel I hit 160 miles before the reserve. (Message edited by buell m2 s3 on November 14, 2015) |

I think I still have a carbed M2 tank if you don't want to mess with the differences. $60 plus shipping. I'll check if I still have it, if you're interested.
