1980 Tl320 Fuel Tank Mounting Rubbers, Anyone Know A Source?

Featured Replies

Hi guys, anyone know of a source for TL320 fuel tank to frame mounting rubbers...the doughnuts that sit at the front of the tank that the tank 'slides' into?

I spoke with Martin at SWM.Moto and no luck....must be something around that can do the job...Honda TL125 ones won't!

A quick google finds tank rubbers out there but I don't have old rubbers to go by - mine are missing - I can try and source some rubbers but I need a photo of one to go by and some dimensions would be real handy too. If anyone could help on that front I'd be grateful and pass on what I find.

many thanks

No idea, I have also a TL.NW from 1980 but no rubber at the front of the tank, just at the rear are two straps, but mine has a plastic tank ...

Could you not make your own from some solid rubber block or adapt some others to fit?

As for the dimensions, can you not take them from the frame mounts and the tank?

If you have a look on ebay france.. there is I think what you want, with swm embossed on them. You might need to get the google translate, but might be worth a punt .

Bon chance..

You need to look under ' Moto de collection piece ' Swm. I am not sure what you are after but there is quite a lot of stuff on there including a jumbo someone is breaking.

Thats a burger you owe me from Colin if he still does all the Eastern centre trials the next time I am home.....
