If someone would make a tank with a cross over hose like the old Harley’s were I would get one but I just can’t see how the gas drains over to the left side
This tank looks to be the simplest tank to install. How does the right side of the tank drain into the left for total fuel consumption? Do I have to lean it over of construct some device hose inside the tank to equally syphon the fuel?
That's a great question! The Clarke tank will potentially leave some fuel on the right-hand side, but the logic here is you can lean the bike to get the remaining fuel to transfer and/or the fuel should slosh itself to the other side while riding down the trail. So, a combination of the two factors should allow you to get the most out of the fuel in your tank.
Looking at Acerbis installs it looks like the install process is a little more involved, is the Clarke install as straightforward as this video for all years?
Yes, the Clarke tank should have no issues being installed on any model year of the XR650L. It is definitely a smoother installation compared to the Acerbis tank and we don't like the idea of the fuel tank smothering the rectifier. We are trying to work with Acerbis in regard to the poor fitment on the XR650L tanks.
Excellent video 🇺🇲🎉🍾🇺🇲 Do you know the weight difference between tanks (OEM x Clarke x IMS). Thank you so much for assisting me. Keep producing more videos about the XR

Where is the exhaust header?
Why did the old tank fail?
