250/370 tanks are a bit fuller.

That's not out of the realm of possibilities Jumbo..I once purchased 'what I thought' an RM80Z tank cover from the UK ::) Turned out to be for an RM80E so I hunted up all the parts I could and built an RM80E to suit my tank cover. You know how it is..a piece from here and a piece from there and suddenly it all came together ;D

Are they the mount to have Pre 78, what else blows them away - KX's perhaps? obviously the jockey has a lot to do with that, but rider skiil aside.

Post by: Jumbo J on March 23, 2015, 04:36:15 pm: LegOwt, i don't want money if thats what you mean. always happy to consider trades for parts i want. Yes i am still looking for the rest of the bike, came close over the weekend but it fell through. you want to sell me yours?

Post by: LegOwt on March 23, 2015, 06:37:32 pm: Ha mine just blew a big end I'm pretty sure you don't want it :) I'm looking for a spare tank to run on the track as my tank is in very good condition and I don't want to wreck it.

like everyone else here is too most probably, one you use and one to keep. which is what i will be doing with this used one once i get the bike. Unless someone has a decent 74 TM250 tank they want to swap. Which is what i do have.
