'86 Tecate...Oversized Fuel Tank?

[Maico]

Hey Guys....

Anyone know if there's an aftermarket, oversized (desert) fuel tank for the '86 Tecate??

If not...has anyone tried to mount up a KX250/500 oversized tank and make it work?

Let me know what you know.

Thanks,

Roger

I've been in the Tecate market for years and have never seen an oversized tank for the 2nd generation. I think it would be hard to design one that didn't look ugly as there is not a lot of room. I never liked the look of the oversized tank on the 250R. Also, I never seen a KX tank mounted to a Tecate. If you are desperate for more gas for long rides, I've seen rear grab bars designed to hold 1 or 2 gallon gas cans. I haven't seen any for the Tecate specifically, but it shouldn't be too hard to modify or fabricate one.
