The problem is replacing all those plastic cards. You were very lucky it was on the side of the road.

That's on the road. I suppose the mileage will drop riding off road. I know that a better seat or a cushion is going to be required in order to ride tank to tank. A larger fuel tank or a rack with one of those Rotopax fuel cells might be a good idea. I'd hate to have to push it out of the woods!Erik Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08051303728879129181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5247474336436209096.post-80605023127041518832012-04-15T16:56:01.716-05:002012-04-15T16:56:01.716-05:00Be careful up there Erik, like yours my TW200 OEM ...Be careful up there Erik, like yours my TW200 OEM tank was small and it's not like you're always an impossible distance from gas, but it seems I'm too often a long ways from convenient and along-my-route gas. I put one of those ATV Kolpin tanks on the back and that was good insurance if a bit inconvenient. Finally the Clarke company came out with a plastic tank and though not the promised ~4 gallons, at a bit over 3, so now I've got a lot more flexibility to stop when I choose.Coop a.k.a.

Now, I move to the woods and I end up with a dirt bike with street tires... Go figure.
