    The only smaller tank is the VDB carbon tank, the RXV tank on your link is the bigger 12l tank from the newer models.

    Some RXV have a smaller tank (others have the 12l tank), the one in your pic is a small tank that is NOT in carbon-fiber, but slightly smaller than the stock tank...

    To my knowledge there are 4 type of tanks:
    Small VDB carbon tank
    Small RSV plastic tank
    Stock SXV-RXV plastic tank
    Big 12 lit plastic tank

    I have both the 8L and the 12L. I don't think there is one smaller than the 8L...

    I know.....strange to hear there is a smaller one....but trust me, there is!!! It was strange to many of us on the Italian SXV-forum when someone came out asking about it, but I know many people that have it and it is a bit different...in fact, look at the two pics I posted...they are different!!!

    My mistake, that's the 12l tank I was talking about.


    So there is a "flater" 8l tank, I doubt its smaller though.
