axulsuv Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Try to locate the clarke plastic company website , I'm sure they make a tank that would work ! Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swooshdave Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 I saw a TY250 with a TY80 tank on it at Donner this year. Did a double take cuz it looked so funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feetupfun Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 TY80 small wheel tank too short TY80 big wheel tank too long TY175 tank too short A DT tank will be too wide at the back end Most twinshock Yamaha dirt bike tanks will "fit" but it would pretty lucky to get one that looks good. Even YZ125C tanks look strange on a TY. Surely there are the later model (aluminium) TY250 tanks available from wreckers. They look fine on an A model.

kevin j Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 alum C & D tanks are quite hard to find. Steel ones on ebay are common. The larger 'trail kit' tanks are quite rare here. I may have a stock yellow AB model tank. I will check. Not sure if it has the rear bracket intact or not. PM me an email. Sold the twin shock 250's, so will be getting rid of the t/s stuff. I also have quite a bit of mono parts, and some TY80 and 175 to get listed here and sold off. kcj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
