If you put the picture up for the frame it will show the 2 centre mounts. Freaky and Vwalter must still be sleeping

Gents - I can't see anything? Is it me or..................

Davey - did you mean #9 x 2

Jim - thanks but looks like I might have found a very straight one

I hope those boys are still asleep - where did that come from?

?

nope - there you go Davey - have seen #19 on the frame picture - yes do have those - it is #18 I am missing. So the MX tank fits with those in place - good.

here it is - looks like it may have already had the rear mount taken off also?

Here's a different take on the tank situation. Fit an MX175 steel tank to a YZ250 (f,g? they all look the same to me!) I reckon it looks pretty good. Owner Michael McCook.

As far as I know YZB - MXB frames were the same except for minor mounting brackets for side covers, CDI, Airbox etc, rear tank mount on MXB tanks always crack or break off, a MXB tank mounts straight on YZB frame

That looks great! But what is it? DT/MX/YZ??!!

Davey Crocket · « **Reply #56 on:** January 01, 2010, 04:27:16 pm »

I'd say MX250B with YZD forks, MX125B feul tank, webco head and a home made chainguard.

I've emailed McCook for the details of the bike. I'm fairly sure it's a combo of different models but mainly an F model 250. McCook won the AHRMA #1 plate for his division for the pre '78 division (Historic) in 07 on the bike.
The tank is actually a NOS MX 175 item, (blue graphics). I believe the bike was originally built by Joe Abbate.

I like the look - certainly different without being in your face!

Ross have the MXb and 175 tanks here if you need to work me over.
