So I just got a new to me 3.7 gal Acerbis tank and I was wondering if you guys could tell me what (if any) mounting hardware I might need. All I have right now is the tank, gas cap, and the valve (with all that goes with that). I don't have any bolts (except for the one that the seat clips to) or brackets or anything like that. Do you just reuse the bolts that hold the stock tank on or do I have to contact Acerbis to see about getting what I need?
If anyone has the instructions that came with their tank, I'd love to see a copy of that! That is, if there actually are instructions.
BTW, I'm putting this on an '07 KLX250s.

 

You should already have everything you need. Just re-use the screws from your existing tank.

There's 2 L bracket that goes under the wing and attach close to the radiator.

 

You can see one here:

Thanks guys!!
Hopefully, I should be able to fabricate new brackets. I guess I'll just have to figure out what size bolts/screws fit in the holes in the bottom of the tank.

 

Mine didn't come with the brackets either, so I fabbed them too. It was easy. BUT... in my case at least, I need to get longer bolts for the front motor mount, since that's where I'ce been connecting the bracket too. One side is fine, but there aren't enough threads left on the bolt to hook 'em both up.

choke **** will be the next thing to tackle. I just removed mine from the carb and filed the diameter of the **** smaller.

 

My choke is working without any modification, it would most likely be easier to operate a little bit smaller.

 

I'll have to check that out once I get the tank on. Thanks for the heads-up about that!!

 

I put the petcock on so it faces towards the rear of the bike (I think that is backwards) . It doesn't interfere with the choke **** operation although I do have to kind of dig for the choke ****.
