I have a CFM oversized oil tank that will not fit with a HMF full exhaust system. Has anyone else come across this same problem? If they did, what did you do to make the tank fit?

Thanks

The CFM with the cooler holes in it was $195 plus $8 shipping. The welds on it are awesume. CFM make a great product. I might sell my stock one if I can get this one to work. I might need to change my exhaust.

I think a new header is the only way to fix it.

Hey Matt, If you can't get the oil tank to fit with your HMF exhaust I will make you another tank and offset the brackets slightly to the rear of the tank to give you more room for the headpipe. I know we talked about this on the phone but I just wanted people to know I'm not going to stick you with something that doesn't work for you. Not my style.

Our website address is www.cfmracing.com but it is under construction. Until it is finished, all of our products can be found on Ebay. My ebay user ID is cfm-performance and my partners is cfm_performance. If you "search by seller" all of the items we offer will come up.

Man, thats cool that CFM stands behind his work. I think i will be getting his oil tank and airbox. They are cheap to, compared to other companies. Does anybody have a pic of the CFM Larger oil tank? Hey Methy, PM me about maybe ridin this weekend.
