750 install

[Texan1554]

Tried out my setup last night and I would say it was successful. Just to clarify... '03 SAN, I replaced my hard tanks with 400# sacs... straight swap so the fill/drain system is stock... just have bags instead of tanks. Sacs filled easily and quickly (~6-7 minutes). If I lost any water out of them while riding it was minimal. This may be different for 750s. The extra water in the 750 may push through the drain line. This could easily be fixed with a manual valve. The sacs drained easily and quickly also. There may have been a gallon of water or less left in the sac after draining. No biggie in my opinion.

Maybe one day when I have the cash and the time I'll go the ballast puppy route, but for the time being this will work...ballin' on a budget for sure.

Good to hear, thanks for the report.

Noticed this thread was going again and wanted to give my 2 cents. I have been using this set up for a while now with no issues. I was plugging the empty ports to keep the water from pushing out but then one day I forgot to put them in and the bags filled up and never lost any water. It does take a little longer to fill because some water IS being pushed out during the fill process but I usually fill mine while going to the riding spot so its being forced in and done by the time the first rider is ready to go. No water ever comes out while bags are full. Hope this helps.

On a side note, the only thing I have in there that is not stock are some automatic valves that open and close when I hit the fill and empty button. Not sure if this would make any difference at all if you where doing it manually.
