Clarke tank Question ?

Show us some pics..."Go on mista!"

I'm sticking with the Acerbis. 3.2 gallons usable plumbed stock and the last bit can be had with a little leaning and rocking. I'd rather have the 3.7 gallons and have to mess around a little to get it rather than not have it at all. NO fitment issues. No relocating or removing of things. It just bolted in.

Still have not decided what to do. [:@]

The Clarke works great for me. Shimming it up 1/4" was no big deal at all. The gap is way overstated...not a problem unless you want a show bike. Then, this is the wrong bike anyway. VFR Pilot used a strip of green tape in the gap and it looks fine. Nice touch, actually. I like the added range and the fact it's plastic.

RE: Clarke tank Question ?
I do like the stock look but unlike many, the Acerbis look sort of appeals to me too. I did save the tank and stock shrouds so if I get too much of a hankering for the stock look, I can certainly go back. I just looked up the Clark tank. 2.7 gallons vs 3.7. We ride deep enough in the woods, I better stay with the Acerbis but that Clark looks like a nice option. Can you seethrough the colored tanks? I can see into my Acerbis just enough to see the fuel level at a glance which is kind of nice. Does the clark require all that fan relocation/replacement nonsense that the IMS tank does?
