Other than the smaller peanut tank on pre 98 S1W and the manta tank on said 98 S1W that's about it unless you go custom built. There's nothing stopping people putting the manta tank on earlier models though.

Suppose there may be a difference to that age old question depending on which tank you have fitted

The recess in the tank where the front of the seat touches the tank , by your nuts!
(other types of genitalia are available)
The manta tanks don`t have it.
