Would the DLX tank fit correctly on our EX?
Wouldn't have issues with seat mounting or handlebars turned? They're an extra gallon capacity right? I would think that space has to be bigger in 1 direction or another

mvk24, the 2017EX tank fits on earlier models as I recall. Someone's done it. I can't recall his name as I write and I don't have time to search. I suspect that means the earlier tanks would fit on the later bikes.

I agree.
Canada had them for a couple years, in fact, at times there was no choice.

That good to know, is the difference an extra gallon or is it more? If I could find a second hand 1 on ebay that would be great with all the touring I do when I can ride.

You may like it this way, but research into mental and bodily disintegration shows that the golden years of old people is nothing but wishful thinking. And it certainly hasn't changed over the last 1,000 generations. Natural selection for health ends when the egg is laid, beyond this point selection acts on the next generation. Modern medicine may keep you alive for longer, but the decay remains the same. Based on facts your table should look more like this :
1-15 is spring (growth)
15-35 is summer (egg laying)
35 - 50 is time for harvest
beyond is ... beyond.
But if you feel fine and happy (our 92 years old neighbor always says she is happy), then so be it my friend. I am "beyond" too. Now, look again at my byline.

Yes , I am a happy person but no "spring' chicken anymore . Having a good marriage is very important to a persons health and wellbeing. ( and having motor cycles )

... and a good marriage to someone who appreciates motorcycles.
But why does the term “harvest “ in a person’s chronological timeline remind me of movies like Soylent Green?
