You will have to forgive the fact it is dirty.  It gets used.

I changed to the standard tank on the weekend and I must admit, i never really thought how much wider it made the bike, but after riding the day on a thinner tank, it is a bit of a difference.  Not too much, but very noticeable.

It uses a standard plug and I can get the plug in and out without tank removal.  No problems accessing the carby or the top of the head.  It runs a scotts/ohlins steering dampener with an underbar mount.

That is nice. Is it made to fit CRFX's??? I have never seen one listed for KLX.

Twosmokerfan:
Hey Mate,

This one is specifically for the KLX.  You can buy others from Acerbis.  See link from "the Bay"

I decided to buy the clear one for obvious reasons.
