What machine is this tank off of? its on ebay right now and is listed as KLT 185/200 fuel tank. It looks very similar to a 185/160/110 tank, but there are slight differences, and the decal is not from a KLT that i've ever seen. any thoughts??? i've included picture of a tank off a 160 on the right. for comparison. whatever it is, it looks like it could be used as a replacement for the 110/160/185 tanks that are becoming harder to find.

Yeah I saw that too and I have no clue what it is off of. Definately don't recognize the decals. It does look very similar to a KLT tank but it seems to me that it is not as wide. It does look similar in width to this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kawasaki-KE125-Gas-Fuel-Tank-Vintage-MX-80-81-82-83-/261261702692?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3cd4693624#ht_580wt_1255 which is listed by the same seller. So I would guess it is also off of an old bike, although I browsed google for a few minutes and was not able to find a bike with the same decals. I'm sure someone might recognize it.

the tank on the left is from a 1982 KL250 dualsport bike.
