how much bigger (in capacity and i just plain bulk) were these? were they OEM options, like the Yam trail tank-seat-peg packages for the TS ones, are are they aftermarket tanks?

Cheers Guys, but I've contacted GasGasmonkey today and my cheque is on it's way to him as I write :wacko:

Might be interested in any other parts you might have, rear wheel with a good rim?? my rear rim has got some seroius rot under the rim tape ;)

Could do with an airbox if anyones got one too?

click on my name and send me a message if there's anything going.

Thanks once again guys (isn't the internet just great :o

Hi Kevin,

Not sure how much more fuel the metal tank holds, but enough to do a large 'road trail' in one go ;) and the tank size does not look out of place.

I don't even know if there a Genuine part (I presume so) I will fit mine when it comes and post a decent pic of it.

Here's one on an old TYR of mine

like to see your pics when its done.

I have one TY street licensed, and if anyone in the states has one of these tanks it might be good to try for a bit more range.

the larger twin shock 250 'street kit' tanks looked bulky I thought, but your mono with the big tank looks the same shape and lines, just scaled up a bit.

Kevin,

I think the capacity of the bigger tank is 5 litres, I'm pretty sure it was OEM on the street legal monos. The 'off-road' tank is 3.5 litres. It's too bad they weren't sold on this side of the Atlantic, I think they would be great for trail riding, along with the padded seat.
