88/89 KX250 gas tank swap - same width as 500?

(1/2) > >>

joko:
Is the 250 tank narrower than the 500? If it is, does the pipe limit the width on the right side? Is it worth swapping for moto application?

DoldGuy:
Joko,
Here in the states just the 89 KX250 tank is smaller (it's what I use) so long as you don't need the extra fuel I highly recommend using it.

joko:
Dold guy, Is it narrower or just not as tall at the top, near the gas cap? Why do you recommend it? Thanks ...

RoostDaddy:
I dont have one, but I believe they are shorter in height.  Maybe we can convince Doug to post a pic showing the overall difference.  :wink:

joko:
I just bought an '88 KX250 tank, got it back home and compared it to the 500, it's same exact tank!
