I fitted one of these tanks to my GS Basic 8 yrs ago. The clamps bolt on ok and stay put but I had to trim down the rubbers to make them fit the slots in the tank. The tank is nice and stable but the biggest drag is the wasted fuel in both bottom corners. I used mine on a trip round S. Europe and morrocco and it does trap a surprising amount of heat around the cylinder heads under hot conditions - managable on an 80 but worth thinking about on a 100 before considering removal of the oil cooler.
