looked closer at the underside of the tank. Left side, very close to the rear (farther back than the petcock) is a threaded plug. Could that mean it is an IS tank?

That looks pretty close to where the threaded pickup is to my belly tank. It also looks like there is a hex base on the fitting the plug is threaded into. I would guess that the tank was originally attached to an R&M belly tank. I love my extra range. cooldude

Carl' suggestion-Willow-on running the fuel down the filling up would be the way to determine which tank is on your gal. Liking the blue but I have the green and silver I/S. You WILL get tired long before the Valkyrie does. 2funny

found out that the fuel shutoff had a hole in the diaphragm. Shocked

Good thing the repair kit is on order.
