    250r short track tank

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hondaline-AT...item2c649a3b10

    Another tank on ebay the shrouds look a bit diffrent?

    Just to clarify the short track tank was ment for eacing correct instead of carring all that fuel with them?

    It was meant for a much tighter turning radius. If that was complete with the tripe clamps you would see some big $for it

    Those are definately some different shrouds. I am thinking maybe "old school" aftermarket from back in the day? Almost looks like they may have originally been white and someone painted them red?

    Well that's what the guy said in the listing he said they were white and he painted them red he said thats how they came factory. He thinks there called factory works and then he was talking about a 200r? That some guy raced in 85 his name was steve wright. Is there such thing as a 200r? I never herd of it or maybe its a type o ??

    Steve Wright is cool!! And 200r is cool, definately not a type o? It is a 250r that has a 200 sleeve in the cylinder.

    Not sure what you're asking Andy? This auction is for an incomplete shorttrack kit with CT shrouds. It's missing the triple,and a LOT of the correct brackets,as you know! The seller says he isn't sure what he has,but the pics speak for themselves. Or am I missing something,lol..

    When it comes right down to it, what your getting is a rare set of shrouds. The tank is a short track tank, but it kinda does look like it has a set of homemade shroud brackets on it.

    I was riffling through the old mags with Garageboy a few days ago. That combined with most of the replies in agreement on here, make me/us believe they are CT shrouds. They were made by UFO according to the mags. Garageboy actually has one that fit the OEM tank, and apparently they made them for both style tanks.
    Here is where my long useless list of stuff nobody cares about should go...
