Heres some pics of mine. I really like the plastic tank, dont have to worry about denting the original metal tank.

Here is my black Clarke, I have the billet cap now but no pic to show you at this time. Other option is the lawnmower tank below, thats what I used until I got the Clarke,lolhttp://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo339/blue2777/350x/DSC02724.jpg

i might be rockin the lawnmower tank before to long. I need to figure out if i want to go plastic tank or no. I love the metal tank looks but if i get a plastic one it will last a long time and i wouldnt care if i trashed the plastic one because there not discontinued.

I like my plastic tank, would do it again for a rider, resto I would go metal

I have a red Clarke on my 350x. Love it. Wont dent and looks decent. If you have a rider go plastic. If you are doing restore go metal like blue27 said.

I agree, for a rider plastic is nice. But i wish i had a metal one also.

I have a white Clarke. It seems a bit shorter than the stock tank, so I have Maier Super Scoops on it and it makes it look better. One other fitment issue... when I first got it, I actually had to inflate the tank with air through the gas cap vent to get it to slip on. Now that it's been on for a year or 2, it goes right back on, no problem.

jg350x how long have you had decals on your tank? Are they holding up ok, everyone ive heard of has problems with them blistering. does anyone know of a material that is breathable to make decals out of? There is a custom decal vinyl graphics place near my house ive thought about asking them to make me some decals when i get a plastic tank. Has anyone done that?

Since Photobucket suks now all of a sudden I'll merely attach the pics but I imagine they'll be tiny.

I love the tank, the mounting suks, so I changed them to billet aluminum mounts, no more issues.

I also believe it's an oversized, maybe 3 gallons or something? but it looks great and it holds lots of gas :D

Decals without holes in them won't stay put, the fumes somehow get thru the plastic and they fall off unless there's a SUPER adhesive now that resists it :D

Anyhow, thats my oversized IMS, I know it isn't cheap but I like it better than the Clarke............

No idea how to get rid of the other uploads, here it is:

I added an unrelated pic :lol:

nah, they are starting to bubble. I dont think they are gonna fall off. They have been on for about 3 weeks or a month and i have only ridden it once with them on there. They were only 4$ so i figured i give em a shot.
