XT600 long range tank
Hi there
I'm new to this site, so please bear with me!
I have been investigating getting a 30L fuel tank fabricted for my 2002 XT600. I've found a bloke who can do it, but he'd be making it from alloy (aluminium?) which i have heard has a tendency to crack along the weld seams due to vibrations etc, even if rubber pads are used when its mounted on the bike.
Has anyone had any experience of this, either to confirm or refute the rumour, or can anyone advise a better solution? I live in Wellington NZ, so getting an acerbis 23L tank is not as easy as it might seem! I'm off to S America at the end of july so I'm keen to get teh tank sorted asap.
Any help much appreciated
