    The 750 Max tank is a little bigger but will require some mods to make it fit.
    I've seen a 650 V-Star tank on a 700, requires some mods. The 700 was made for 2 years only and it's different from other XJ's so whatever you get will most likely require some mods.
    I like a little rest after 140 miles.LOL
