Saw this on that social media website. A friend of mine is going to sell kits to put a Tecate tank and shrouds on the ATC250r. After grinding down the OEM stops on the lower triple, this will give a similar effect as the short track kit.

Not sure on the details, but I think the kit will show up on a website where one can bid on lots of stuff.

I think it looks pretty good with that tank on it.

Looks good. It appears to be a Clarke tank molded in red? Any info on the shrouds, molded or painted?

Clarke tank and shrouds are plastic, not sure where to get the red tank at this point.

Shrouds:

And it holds more fuel than a Honda short track kit. And less expensive...Win win.

To me this is awesome and funny. Awesome that there is a cheaper allturnative to the Hondaline short track kit. Funny, I have looked at a lot of other gas tanks to see if something else would fit and this tank was right here under my nose lol.

personally i would look for a thinner tank if was gonna go for a short track tank alternative, i never liked how fat feeling my 86 Tecate was in the middle (keep in mind this is from a guy who put ATC70 tanks on his Nicholson 200, Nicholson XR500 and even my Honda powered Quadracer had a tiny fuel tank custom made by CT for me)

wide tanks make it harder to move around on the bike if you are serious about fast lap times like i was

I haven't seen the brackets for sale in a while. Are you on Facebook? I can't remember the guys name that was putting these together, but someone in the trike pages would know. If I remember correctly it required welding to attach the top mount to the down tube so it wasn't exactly a "bolt on" kit, but if you're halfway crafty, the main parts were tecate tank and shrouds.

The guys name is Bobby D'Amora on Facebook. I sent him a PM asking if he still sells this kit. I'll let you know if I hear something.

You probably never considered it because it was the wrong color for a Honda.So in that case, there's this from the same seller as above..... Get the conversion from D'Amoro and you're set to rock the Red.
