mikesmith:
Paul Krause ran a all white KX500 in the early '90s,but you are the first one Ive seen to run that style Clarke tank!Again,nice!
Kawadougie:
Thanks for all the compliments. I've always liked white bikes for some reason and I've used those Acerbis fenders on several other bikes in the past. I have bought a standard tank in white from Clarke but I was really happy with this one. Doordie, when you get your clutch, let me know and I will help you set it up. It really works better without the flywheel. You just point and turn the throtttle and it lifts the front end up and jets to the next corner. You never have to worry about killing the motor, even when you lock up the rear wheel. I'm heading up to Oregon later this month to ride the China Hat (one day) ISDE. I'll let you know how it does.
Rick:
Is the Clarke tank still available? Looks like my ZipTy with KX250 shrouds.

yeah, I went out to Clarke's web site and they have them there. 170 + S/H. They also have them in about 8 different colors. I dare you to get the RedOrange one! :wink:
mikesmith:
The shrouds are part of the tank and hold fuel right? How thin is that tank,same as stock or wider?
