The 10 Million Dollar 300ex question...

[Blazer25]

Okay, I need to know if a 2005 or 2006 gas tank will fit on a 2007 Honda 300ex? Mine has a small leak and the new ones are almost $500. I can find a 2005 & 2006, I just can't find one for a 2007. Please only answer if you know 100% . The part numbers are different, but they look the same in all the pictures I see. Any help would be appreciated.

If anyone does have a gas tank that will fit an 07' Honda 300, let me know. I need one. Also looking for white rear plastic too. Thanks!

I think the older will work. We converted our older chassis to the newer plastic while still using the older tank.

my expereince with a clarke aftermarket tank.
it will fit on an 07, its not exactly perfect but will fit.

You then have to run a +2 steering stem or it will hit the tank.

100% for sure.

I guess I should have mentioned that too. We also have a Clarke tank but we still have a stock stem, clears fine on ours... :confused:

my frame was an 07
what year frame do you have?
I had a brand new +1 JB stem and it would not clear. Had to use the +2

Ahh, gotcha. The pic is a 1987 TRX250X stock frame and steering stem. Wanna sell the +1 JB stem?

BTW- does that bumper look familiar to you John? Thanks again!

[john willhoite]

I allready sold it.

Here is a pic of the +2 with clarke tank.

Oh yeah that bumper looks good.

Nope, just as I got it from you. It was a while ago... Were finally getting around to a full build like yours, check it out
