I may have one in Yellow but it is the steel one ...not alloy. I lent it to nick to see if it would fit his EML but they don't got them in UN ZUD so you wont know what I'm talking about...so I'll shut up now. I'm sure he'll still have it.

DR400T had the alloy one and they are hard to find these days. Dr500 is easier as they are steel and pretty bullet proof.

Mike , my alloy tanks are spoken for. I have a steel job that has internal rust up for grabs.

thought i'd revive this thread instead of dirtying up the forum.

My dr500 tank has a few rust holes underneath.. I think i may be easier to find another one then patch up.

Do many other tanks fit? I was hoping a dr250 one might as they are cheaper and more easy to find.

cheers

I had a rm500 83 or 84 tank on my dr500 for a while fits fine. The yz125 76 tanks fits to and alloy but then the dr looks like a hl500 :o

The dr250 will fit after a bit of panel beating under neath were the frame branches out into two tubes.http://http://i1343.photobucket.com/albums/o785/dr500/db_Conv_R00129431_zps27088612.jpg
