OK - so now its 8 weeks later, where´s the tanks Clarke ? Any news from your discussions with IMS Wannabe? cheers JdB

How much do you pay for the 2009 EC300?

Husky will have a new 300 2 stroke...

Many thanks for the info Wannabe, thats what we needed to hear. :) cheers Jerry

I also like the metzeler MC5 front, I have found it to be super stable in all conditions. We have a lot of rocks fixed and loose of all sizes, and sand. cheers Jerry

Yep, thats weird. They told me that they did not have any plans to make a tank, then when I asked him what conditions would have to be met to make a mould and produce a tank he said - "we cannot do this". Also strange that GoFasters take so long to comment. I´m not sure what to make of all this...

Nice to hear from you Mark! My email enquiry to Clarke was answered with a short "NO that will not be possible". On the other hand IMS answered very favourably and not at all " back and forth on commitment" - please read the email from IMS below: ------- email from Scott at IMS below...

I did send send an email to Clarke asking if they would make a tank for 2007and up two strokes - the answer was a flat no. IMS on the other hand will do it, if there is a minimum of 40 tanks. Thats not bad! Of course they would have to fit right. Cheers Jerry

Oh well, I thought there were a few decent GasGas dealers active on this forum, if there are, they dont want to get involved in this discussion somehow, I cant see why not. Maybe they know something we dont? Looks like I will have to lug around the 5 litres of gas in a rucksack on long trips if...

Unfortunately it doesnt seem that anything will happen unless a GasGas dealer will get involved, at least to take advance orders - and payments - for a 40 tank minimum that IMS will need to start production. This seems to be a generous offer from IMS, I dont see how anyone can lose out here...

I agree it would be by far the best if a good GasGas dealer would get involved, everyone would then buy the tanks from them, plus, I´m sure the other accessories and spares etc for their bike. Advance orders could also be taken by the dealer to get the project up and running. What do you think...

It would be great if GasGas dealers would support this. Would a dealer for example, be interested in taking advance orders for tanks and IMS basic conditions could be easily met and would begin production. GasGas riders worldwide would be interested I´m sure. cheers Jerry

Hi there, this bigger tank for 2007 and up 2 strokes thing spun off from a suspension question, I thought it best to move it here as its now got to be a serious possibility with IMS stepping up if their basic conditions are met. As he points out - GasGas contacted IMS regarding manufacture of...

Good news! Hi all, I moved this bigger tank thing over to a new thread on "Chassis and Body" forum. Cheers Jerry --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi guys, received a great email from Scott at IMS. They are prepared to manufacture a tank if...

oops I accidentally entered "5 or more" :o Actually its really "none" - yet.
