[QUOTE="Porkchop, post: 1374583, member: 22923"] [b]tank fix?[/b] The fuel tanks are made from cross lined THAT IS linked OOPS poly-ethylene, most buckets & oil bottle containers are the same material. Harbor Freight sells a plastic welding kit, It looks like an electric soldering iron with a flat triangular shaped heat pad. It comes with filler material & instructions & is easy to use. My neighbor's bike had a leaking crack on the bottom of the tank & I took a shot fixing it for them using oil bottle material cut into strips for filler. It melted together nicely, then i cut out a patch & welded the patch over the area. All this took about 20 minutes start to finish. It's been working leak free for 6 months now, their kids hammer on it daily. OEM replacement is best, but if the problem is discovered the night prior to a race or ride there's an option. I've used it 3 times since then, successfully. :whoa: Best regards, Porkchop... [/QUOTE]
