I finally got around to adding my aux tank and using it on the Nutmeg Rally that I competed in and took 3rd place. I took the tank off my ST1100 so it is only 3.4 gals, I could have gone bigger but the tank was available and fit just right on the bike. It now gives me about a 300-350 mile range.

Hi Dave. Looks good. I'll have to show it to a friend, he has a Triumph Tiger 1050. Not quite the same bike, but he may be interested.

Is that the aux tank that Dave built for you (the other Dave)?

I know they make an oversize fuel tank to replace the stock, but the dang thing is plastic and cost almost $1,000!! Too rich for me. Your solutions looks like a good option for adding a little range.
