any one got a reasonably good yz125e tank around mine has a very yellow tinge to it
-
have you tried restoring it ?
If it is OK apart from the stain try putting a litre (or so) of white king in the laundry tub with enough water to cover and fill the tank. Soak for 24 hours and presto (probably). Well - worth a try anyway.
Others have had success - give it a go. Nothing to lose except a few bucks for a bottle of bleach ;)

I reckon that's a 250/400D/E tank. Too fat to be 125D/E.
Definitely not 125F~J.
Edit: The 250/400 tank will fit onto a 125, but looks kinda goofy and enduro-ish.
Edit 2: Ah, just like the email posted by the seller said. :-[

I have a YZ100G tank surplus to my requirements, they never changed from 78-81. It may fit your bike, it needs a clean up but its in reasonable shape yours for the cost of postage if you want it.

Another pic

If caps does not require the tank I would be interested CG. For my Speedway sidecar as current one has split between the 3rd and 4th petrol taps. Cheers Tim
-
Does the 100G/H tank fit only the 100G/H ? I have a feeling they do. The 125 is bigger (??????)
There wasn't that many of them made was there. I have some interest as well if you haven't already given it to either of these 2 blokes ::).
-
The tanks on the YZ100 E-H are all the same part number, there wasn't much of a design change until the YZ100J. If caps999 gives me the YZ125E tank dimensions to compare then all may become clear on whether or not they will fit the same.
-
Please by all means let the others have preference for there solos, fitting one up for speedway makes some drastic irreversible type changes. Cheers Tim
-
ill cgeck the dimentions to night and ill have a look at the part numbers and ill se how i go ;)
-
I know that the part numbers are different, being 2K5 (100G) not 2X3(125E) the 100 tank may be a smaller volume but similar fitment
-
it does look a bit smaller but well se how we go mate
-

Ask mainline how he went. Pretty sure you can't hurt the tank as it is made out of the same stuff as the bleach bottles.
