I bought it on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QHMQIAG/

Yes, I think the rubber gasket is deteriorated after 15+ years. It is / was probably leaking air but you can't see air. 😁 To be honest I am surprised it is working at all as I did not think FJR's fuel system was a closed loop back then. I have 25,000+ miles now on my setup with no issues.

With a lot of my projects on hold I have had some time to update the FJR information on my website. I added a lot of photos that label all of my farkles and other information as to what I have been doing to my FJR. Here is a link.  https://www.gregrice.com/bike/fjr.html

You will be filling both tanks as it would take a long time for the gas to flow to the main tank while you are at the gas pump. I fill the main tank first and then close the gas cap. I then fill the AUX tank.

I am over 15,000 miles now with the AUX tank setup and no issues.

What I have found on the FJR is that if you are only going to fill one tank the best one is the main tank and NOT the AUX tank.

That is correct. BMW riders have been using this method for many years.

Brodie, No, I do not have a puke tank. Just the normal vent line.

No, I do not have a shut off valve. since the AUX tank is now the vent for the gas tank I do not want to accidently turn off a valve.

Be sure you have good venting for the AUX tank and it will work great.

I used AN fitting and the blue non-collapseable fuel line. Check out the photos.

I have over 11,000 miles ( includes two BBG’s ) with the AUX tank setup and so far no issues. Summer is coming soon and I will be able to see how it works in the heat.

I paid ( 4 others also ) $10,900 + tax for a brand new 2018 A model at Big St. Charles in St. Louis.

I am going to be able to make this RTE. I will be testing some new farkles on my 150 mile ride to Cowpokes. I plan on arriving early incase anyone else is arriving early.

I am looking to find a Russell front seat that fits a 2018 FJR. I am 6 feet tall and weigh 180. You can email me at [email protected].

Tony, I just wanted to congratulate you again on a great accomplishment. Using miles from only IBA certified miles will make the 100,000+ mile year something very special.

I rode 38,500 miles on three different bikes in 2019. 2018 Gold Wing, 2019 BMW GSA and 2018 FJR. I was laid up for 4 months do to my accident. 11,400 was in the IBR.

It is possible the seat moved me back some. I am probably going to have a Russell made that will bring me closer to the bars.

I have had my new 2018 FJR A Model for 3 months now and I have 10,400 miles on the clock so we are getting acquainted. I rode a couple BBG's and many other LD type rides as I work to get comfortable. My AUX tank setup ( other message thread ) is working well and the air deflectors I installed...

I just another BBG over New Years Eve and no issues with the AUX draining. So far no drilling or modifications except to replace the vent hose with the AUX tank fuel line.
