for comparison, 14.6L and installed 16.8L

More kms/300+, without stopping and refuelling!!

You may also get 16.6L or 16.8L seamless from '17-19'EX+ models ?? that will fit your 2014 CB.
Lots of info within the forum, use forum's search engine to find out more ..
Good luck.

Can you please provide a direct link to the web page? It’s confusing to me of how they have everything listed and the fuel tank sizes are not always listed. Much appreciate. Looks great btw and thanks for help!

I don’t know the cost, but that tank only gets you about another 2 liters, or about 30 miles. How about a RotopaX instead? The one gallon size is only about $60 — enough for another 60 miles or so. The two gallon size is about $90.

G14,
Samurider Honda: https://www.samurider.com/?cat=16

You have three choices:
* bigger, but same shape like your present '14 tank, new or used, reuse your present gas cap/key
** bigger, seamless tank of different shape than yours, new or used, have to buy a new gas cap + key
*** custom built from Japan/Samurider....have no details, big buck$, ask Mr. Takase

The tanks capacity varies from 14.6 L to 16.6/16.8 L, so be careful to chose the one that fits you best.
The best, in my opinion, is if you send an email to Takashi, CB1100 professional of excellent service . These tanks + S&H are not cheap, expect about U$1400 for a new tank.
If exchanges tanks, order new fuel pump ass-y seal (1) and fuel line gasket kit (2 pieces) = NO leak, NO surprises. To swap, will take you 1/2-1.0 hr and running again.......

RE: bigger fuel tank - alprider - 08-01-2020

has the DLX overthere not a 17.5 liter tank ? ( like here our 2014EX)

the new seamless is only 16.8 liter

You might be right, but I am not 100% sure, so maybe Takashi from Samurider can justify. Heard some rumour that biggest tank is 16.6 or 16.8 L ????
However, specs for DLX says: Fuel Capacity: Deluxe 4.6* gallons/17.4 L

RE: bigger fuel tank - alprider - 08-01-2020

the biggest CB 1100 ""honda"" tank has this 17.5l / 17.4l just DLX

the 2017 modell seamless tank has 16.8l....

RE: bigger fuel tank - PowerDubs_imp - 08-02-2020

I've always wanted to see a DLX tank in real life. I think it's shape would probably be more to my liking than the standard tank I have.

RE: bigger fuel tank - the Ferret - 08-02-2020

the DLX tank is not very "sporty" but is rather bulbous and rounded, but it does hold a decent amount of fuel.
