IMS Fuel Tank
Go the Distance with IMS Fuel Tanks
When range matters more than anything else on the trail, IMS Products is the name riders reach for. Fuel tanks are the cornerstone of IMS's product lineup, and the California-based brand has spent decades perfecting the art of extending your ride without compromising the look or feel of your machine. Founded in 1976, IMS recognized early on that stock fuel tanks simply weren't enough for the demands of off-road and enduro riding.
A Legacy Built on Extended Range
The story of IMS in the fuel tank category stretches back nearly 50 years. IMS Products was founded by CH Wheat after he recognized a need for more innovative extended-capacity fuel tanks, and the brand went on to develop the "Quick Fill" fueling system that became a staple of fast racing pit stops for motorcycle and ATV competitors. That racing DNA is embedded in every tank IMS produces today.
IMS fuel tanks are engineered to provide greater riding distance per tankful while maintaining a profile that stays as close to stock as possible. The tanks are designed with a slim, sleek silhouette — larger capacity than stock, yet very slim and sleek — so riders don't sacrifice handling or ergonomics to gain range. This careful balance between volume and form is what keeps IMS at the top of the aftermarket fuel tank conversation.
Construction: Built to Endure the Rough Stuff
Every IMS fuel tank is manufactured using rotationally molded crosslinked polyethylene — a material chosen specifically for its superior strength and impact resistance compared to standard polyethylene. This construction method results in tanks that can withstand the rigors of off-road punishment, from rocky desert racing to tight wooded singletrack. The crosslinked polyethylene also makes them compatible with modern fuel blends, ensuring long-term durability in the field.
IMS offers multiple capacity options for many popular platforms. For example, riders on KTM EXC models can choose between a 3-gallon and a 4.5-gallon version, both available in black or natural finishes. This range of sizes means you can dial in exactly how much range you need without going overboard on weight and width — a key consideration for performance-oriented riders.
Trusted by Champions, Loved by Trail Riders
IMS tanks aren't just popular with weekend warriors — they've been relied upon by professional off-road racers and enduro champions for over 30 years. The brand's combination of race-proven design and real-world practicality has earned it a loyal following across dirt bikes, ATVs, and side-by-sides. Whether you're preparing for a Baja run, an enduro event, or simply want the confidence of not having to cut a long trail ride short, IMS fuel tanks offer a straightforward upgrade that delivers on its promise.
