Has anyone put a different fuel tank on their Cobra Chassis?

I have a YZ85 Cobra mod and it's a pain to change spark plugs. The tank has to come off to get the plugs in and out. I was hoping someone has put a different tank on that has a concave bottom that would give me some room to work.

It would also be great to have more fuel capacity for longer rides. We occasionally go for 4+ hour long rides in the desert and we have to get gas from one of the other 2-strokes along the way.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have the same problem with my RM in the cobra frame. I put a few washers under the front tank mounts, it raises the tank up just enough to get the plug cap off and the plug out.

I'll try that first. If it doesn't work, I guess I'll have to take some measurements and start looking for an aftermarket tank for it.
