To fit a watercooled 500?
I have a spare 87 250 tank, I will have to dig it out of storage to see what condition it's in.

Nathan only just made me aware of your post GMC....sorry if it seemed rude mate...

Let me know if you find one since I am still keen ....also .... can you send a box tissues to put next your pipe that hasn't made it from the showroom to my '84 KX500.  I am sick of people weeping at its beauty all over the place....

I reckon I will just collect your pipes and have them there saying ..."yeah that's for my '79 Elsinore out the back etc... hahaha!!!"

Great work thanks....

1989 250 tank is the one you need

89 tank won't fit 87 bike - the seat doesn't match up, for a start.

Where does it say its a 88+ 500 ??


The bit where he asked for an 87 250 tank was a big hint.

Dug the tanks out this morning, stared at them both for an hour trying to decide which was the worst one to offer you.
In the end I had to draw straws.
I gave it a bit of a sand to see if the white would disappear, it seems to.
Bottom section has been melted a bit by the exhaust.
Make an offer

ha you are right but i have fitted a 87kx500 tank and seat and shrouds
to a 2001 model kx500 as it had a split tank worked ok
but yeah 88 on is the 89 250 tank the holy grail very hard to find
