I AM LOOKING FOR A YZ 125 A TANK, DOES ANYONE HAVE ONE FOR SALE.
DAVID
-
GEEE, SOMEONE MUST HAVE A YZ125 A TANK AS A SPARE, A BIKE CAN ONLY USE ONE.
-
yeah i want a yz360a motor as well there must
be shitloads of them around as well ;D ;D :D
-
But by that theory - if it can only use one, why would you have 2 then ? Mine has one, and not 2.
-
How much are you prepared to pay for a Tank ?
-
TM Bill
Give me a figure and you will receive an answer, what condition is the tank, needs repainting, any dents.
thank you

I heard about a NOS tank for YZ125A few months ago. Bloke was asking 2k. I could chase it up if your interested.
-
I have one in as new condition I don't want to sell, but I don't think paying somewhere between $1000 and $1500 is out of the question for mint one. Costs over a grand to get dints out and repaint.
-
Last year l bought 74 250,360 YZA AND B Tanks from USA, cost me 500 plus freight to buy, exchange rate was about 90 to 93 cent in the dollar, try to sell them here , and know one would pay the price, so 1000 to 1500 for YZA 125 your dreaming. It would need to be in its new box, and then l wouldn`t pay 2k. Well if you say 1500 for a tank, the whole bike would be worth 6.000 plus if your talking like that. A 1000 to get a dent out, l think your talking to the wrong person and getting ripped off. Gone are the days of helping another member out. l must change my ways if that is the case.

As with anything its worth what somone will pay for it , whats a YZ 125A without a tank or incorrect tank fitted worth ?
Tanks come up on Ebay from time to time and with the US economy what it is you will probably get a bargain :)
-
Someone thought it was worth 2k. Tank gone I was told lastnight. Sold to the UK. Maybe buying power of the pound over the Oz dollar may have helped, but still he got his 2k.
-
I am still hopeful that ebay will have a few more bargains, but bidding seems same as ever, though I did ping decent Simons front end for $420. Basically anything that is mint and requires no additional work is still expensive.
-
I saw a cr125 ally tank many dents in it at the dues swap meet the guy wanted $360 for it, only suitable for a race if you are too scared to race with a mint one.
-
try and buy a 1973 cr250 honda tank.i have had quotes to fix mine from 500.00 to 1800.00
-
I'd be interested to hear how much guys have paid to get steel and alloy tanks repaired - good thing the big reds are plastic !!!
$2K for a new YZ tank - hmmmmmmm :o
Dave have you tried evil-bay in the US ?
Might go to tech stuff and start a thread

Jim. Who gave you quotes? Have you tried GMC right here in Oz ?
I will sending my tank to Geoff, just waiting on spare tank Nathan has put aside for me. When I have both of them I will send Geoff the least damaged of the two for repairs. I have seen pictures of repairs he has done. Owners seem pleased and pix look great.

-

Whatever somones prepared to pay for it ;) what do you think its worth ?
Is it steel or ali ? is it YZ or MX ?
-
cant find the serial number on it..does anyone no where it is located..
so i can find out what year model it is...much apreciated... :)
-
Well I know what it is not off, Its certainly not yz125a or yz125c cause i got them in front of me, i recon it might be off a 250 cause it looks a bit fat, put a magnet on it see if its aluminium
-
Dont think its A or B going by that large mount with the Butchers hook through it ,A & B are held on with straps :-\
-
I don`t need another YZ 125 A FREAKY, just the tank.
-
i thought with all these replys
you would have found one
by now ;D ;D ;D
-
Not yet holeshot, still looking, our club runs a bucket class, up to 125 4 strokes and 100 cc 2 stroke, l am building up a 100cc yz a to race in this class and that is why l need a yz tank.
-
Looks like a YZ250C tank.
-
there is a guy in the States who professionally restores the 73/74 Honda CR250M and sells them for around $8-$10K pre recession (oops did I say that!!). He quotes around $1500-$2000 to repair a tank and his works looks really good. But I sent my tank to Geoff at GMC, didn't pay anywhere near that price or other prices mentioned here (but will not commit Geoff to a price ;D) and was absolutely stoked with the repair job - mine was one of the ones pictured elsewhere on the forum.
Seriously try Geoff first as I think you will be pleasantly surprised depending upon amount of work required?

Andrew vmx, l bought yz tanks from USA, l paid 455 US, Plus freight and bought those tanks when the dollar was good, sold them here on ebay for $450 and they where in very good race condition tanks, and l lost money.
