The Roadster tank holds about 2.2 gallons but is very short. The easiest tank to fit would be the Interstate (4.5 or 5 gallons depending on steel or GRP) and that would only involve changing the seat as well. The Fastback is three gallons and needs a seat, tail fairing and different rear mudguard and brackets. The rare Fastback Long Range tank is 4 gallons and may fit with your original seat though will look a little odd. I found this tank to be a poor fit, resonated badly and got rid of it pretty quickly.

As I understand it, here are your options:
1. Get an Interstate tank, sidecovers and seat
2. Get a "Long Range Fastback" tank. I do not know if you have to replace the seat to do this.
3. Get an Interpol tank. These usually have a cut out section in it for a police radio but I have seen that cut out filled in and looking quite nice.
I'm sure that if there are other options someone else will chime in.
