Hi, I own a 1992 KDX200 SR model which has the metal gas tank which is only 9.5L. I am thinking of changing it to the E plastic gas tank for the extra 2.5L. Anyone can post some pictures of your E bike
gas tank mounting at the rubber damper area? I just want to know how the rubber strap is attached to the damper post. Many thanks for the help.

I can get my frame down if you like a take the picture later today

Many thanks hadfield4wd...owe you one.

One of the first modifications I did to my SR was to fit the E plastic tank. However, you'll have to remove the oil pump and oil reservoir and run the bike on pre-mix. From memory, as it was 20 odd years ago that I did this, you'll also have to hack off the oil reservoir mounting tabs from the frame otherwise the plastic tank won't fit.

You'll also have to glue a piece of rubber to the frame where the back of tank will sit. The rubber strap fits over a tab that is on the part of the frame where the front of the seat locates.

Cheers

Had an issue with photobucket I'll try to get them up

Many thanks Dodger and hadfield4wd for the infor.

No problem. I'll still sell you my plastic tank as well.
