VR-V75-VA-VB Tanks
« on: August 18, 2012, 04:47:16 pm »
What are the differences between the VR-V75-VA-VB tanks?  I know the different stripes, but will they all inter-change between bikes?

VR, V75 & VA are the same shape just different stripes. The VB tank is a different shape being slightly bigger and the filler is offset to the right and the breather sits beside the filler. The VA -V75-VA tank will fit the VB but not correctly. The 125 tanks are different again.

I believe they are smaller overall (slightly shorter and narrower). Jared may be able to confirm.

The 125 VA tank is the same as the VR, but has fittings for one petcock.
