Default 86 1000R Ninja Fuel tank question

What are differences between the US, Canadian and California model fuel tanks?

I have an 86 Red 1000R that is mint except for the inside of fuel tank. BikeBandit shows that all 3 model tanks are still available but the US tank is 900.00 and the Canadian/California is 430.00.

Are these tanks really still available and will all 3 interchange on bike?

any help is greatly appreciated

Walter

welcome to KF. the difference is smog device hook ups on the us models. extra hoses to hook up to.

Thanks for the help.

BikeBandit said item was no longer available but I found other website called Dillion Brothers Honda/Kawasaki and they had tanks w/o decals in stock.

I removed all the smog equip and related hoses and made block-off plates for valve cover and added individual K-N filters in place of my airbox.

Why are the CA tanks $400.00 less than the US/CN models?

As far as mounting and fuel/vaccum line fittings, all 3 are identical?

I'll order 1 next week and see what happens.

Also where can I locate the main Kawasaki and stripe decal for tank?
