Got a new over-sized tank for my KX250
« on: April 02, 2008, 04:16:24 PM »
I got this brand new off ebay. The posting said it was a 3.0 but this has got to be way bigger, 3.4 or 3.7. I'm not so sure i will like this.  I'm going to try riding it tomorrow and see what happens. I though the 3.0 would be too little, this is too big  wtf man lol I'm thinking a 3.2 is what i want.  This would fit a 500 wouldn't it? If anyone needs one or wants to trade me for a 3.1 or 3.2, let me know.

Wont fit the 500. They called them the alien head tanks around here! Clarke makes a nice tank that doesnt have the bulge up top.
A couple of 03 and 04 KXs, a few YZs, 3 PE 400s, a DR and a TS.

That tank is huge, I would guess close to 4 ga, if not 4 gallons.  Here is a picture of my bike with a IMS 3.1 or 3.2 if I remember correctly.

i have that same tank. 3.7 filled to the top. its alot of weight when full, sloshing around. and your knees hit the elephant ears or whatever you want to call them. the other ims 3.1 or 2 is 100% better.

just my 2cents
