DAYTONA SR400FI / INJECTED MODEL "NORTON MANX REPLICA TANK", POLISHED, W/MONZA CAP, 91745
The SR400FI (2010 ~ 2017) “NORTON MANX” style tank by DAYTONA Japan represents classic design and modern manufacturing techniques. Crafted as a tribute to the iconic Norton Manx, this tank is not only a nod to the past but also a versatile component for classic motorcycle enthusiasts and custom bike builders alike. Its aluminium construction ensures durability, and a polished finish adds to its aesthetic appeal. Fitted with a lockable Monza style cap and supplied with all essentials needed to install easily adds to the overall SR400FI tank package.
As seen in the product images, the commitment to quality is evident in its Japanese craftsmanship, ensuring that each tank is not just a part, but a piece of crafted workmanship second to none! Designed specifically for Yamaha SR400 injected model, the tank integrates onto the original factory SR tank location tabs front and rear using the supplied hardware, so there is no fabrication or altering needed (bolt on straight out of the box). Your FI type fuel tap and fuel sender units can be transfered over, and existing fuel lines will be fitted to the tank during installation.
An important detail of the Daytona Manx style tank is the proportions, the Daytona SR400FI tanks have been made specifically for the Yamaha SR400FI, meaning there is no oversized or out of place fitment, (unlike other brands sold elsewhere that are offering generic one size fits all tanks with added on fitting).
The dye pressing process, coupled with robotic welding ensures a flawless construction, while the pressure testing before shipment guarantees performance & reliability. As expected, the normal SR400FI (2010 ~ 2017) type petcock and fuel sender can be installed or swapped from your current factory tank.
Whether you keep the tank polished or customized with paint (or a blend of both), the Manx type of tank is a premium choice for those looking to combine classic café racer styling with contemporary custom bike builds. It's a testament to the enduring legacy of the Manx and the evolution of modern motorcycle customization.

SUITS:
-> SR400FI / fuel injected model, ('2010-'2017).
TIPS:
-> The use of optional part number 75652 (custom seat installation kit) is recommended for custom seat use. It lowers the battery and will align seat rubbers when using aftermarket carbie type seats.
-> As a guide, the Manx style tank is suitable with “short” custom seats that are of a shorter length, than the normal factory seat. In other words, you need a single short type of seat with this tank. Some seats may clash. In general, many are fine but factor in the tanks extra length when buying seats.
RECOMMENDED SEAT:
-> The POSH SR400/500 Short “Café 5” seat (Black with red piping #901113-20) have been installed with this tank. The Café 5 seat is made for use with the POSH Norton Tank Cover, so it is an ideal seat for adaption here with the Norton tank proper.
-> Nitroheads Café seats have been used by our customers (*if they are shortened at the front).
-> Peyton Place SR400/500 seats have been fitted with this tank but require shortening.
-> Others......customise as you like. FYI: The Daytona SR400 image above is using a Moto Tipo Seat.
*There are many commercially available seats on the market that will be usable or are adaptable. Some may be ok; some need adjustments, and some may not fit at all due to dimensions of the seats. We cannot answer questions about every seat on the market.
*However, if you need a seat talk to us about the options, (VANEM) can offer you!
ATTENTION:
1, This tank does NOT suit the SR400 carburettor models (78~2008), and cannot be installed on due to a change in the shape of the tank bottom plate and fuel tap fittings and internal plumbing etc. For carbie models, see the Norton replica tank listed in our store (#66678) which is for the older model.
2, Please use OEM fuel cock. It is recommended to replace the O-ring with a new o ring when mounting. OEM part number: 4X8-24512-10 (Gasket fuel petcock O ring x1), sold separately. Also use a new O'ring for the fuel sender unit, OEM part number 42X-85753-00 (Gasket, for fuel sender unit x1). You may also opt to replace the screw crush washers also!
3, Aluminium gasoline tanks can have some manufacturing marks due to the handmade / welding processes. *We cannot accept complaints about minor marks or minor wrinkles or ripples in the alloy etc., so please only purchase after understanding in advance, with that said these are made to a very high standard.
4, If you are fitting clip-on bars and fitting the turn signals (lamps) next to the under bracket, use of the handlebar stopper (26157 or 910041) this is recommended (sold separately). As is setting up the bars correctly.
5, The alloy surface is untreated to take advantage of the lustre of aluminium. Regular maintenance is required to maintain a highly polished look. We recommend cleaning regularly and polishing lightly on a regular basis. We also recommend if you live by the sea, take measures to protect the tank just like all polished parts. There are polished alloy compounds available that can be wiped on to protect the surface.
