Default Re: Carbon fibre fuel overflow tank for 998 - does it exist? (Buckelew)

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by Buckelew &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">One question I have, Jason - does anyone make a replacement for the coolant tank behind the headstock? I think mine split again. it's not expensive, but it's a pain in the ass. I'd like to fix it once and for all.

Any reason why Ducati couldn't pull their heads out of their asses and have the supplier grind a little metal out of the mold....or make it out of glass-filled plastic?

The second question is rhetorical.</TD></TR></TABLE>

There is the Corse one that sits in front of the headstock, I have not seen one of those get split. I think they are about $100 though. And you need to run on the 23.5 setting or shorten up the steering stops a lot to clear it.

I have seen a few guys run aluminum tanks, but I don't know where they come from????
