    It is very nice to see that they have stepped up the quality on these tanks. I wonder how the new first gen tanks are since they redid the mold. I have the infamous dcreel white first gen tank that I have to caswell epoxy if I want to use it. It would be nice to have a new green tank to go with it.

    Well guys, I have been way from the site for some time, and its seems something has changed dramatically in the world of Tecate land since the last time I graced these hallowed halls of the internet. NEW GREEN FUEL TANKS for 86/7 KXT Tecates...... WOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

    Now where is the best place to buy one?

    Tammy of cosmic quads is sending my boxes of other Tecate stuff over, I recently discovered I can buy wide axles for my tecate, and blow me down with a feather I can buy a new tank now. Life is good!


    See what happens when people for long enough about something... other, better looking, people go right ahead and do something about it.

    I'm a green and gold blooded Aussie through and through, so this may come as a shock to some...... But, God bless America!

    P.S. I don't know if the people at Clarke are better looking, but if they make new a new tank for my 87 Tecate, they can be what the heck they want to be in my books.

    P.P.S Any word on the 84/5 tanks, has the mold been fixed?

    Their website shows the 84-85 tanks as available. I have no clue about the mold, though. I can't believe they are making 86-87 tanks. I have never owned a B-model Tecate, and at this rate, it'll be years until I do, but I might just buy one or two tanks to help them out for taking a huge risk. All Tecate owners need to buy one to show their support. These are the first new tanks in a very long time, y'all. Spend a little and send the message that you are serious about your Tecates.

    Nope, they sure don't. You have to re-use your originals.

    No they dont. You have to source your own ones man. They do turn up on the bay from time to time.. They aint toooooo difficult to fabricate actually, provided you can get a "sample" to work with.
    Waiting for mine through the post, so when they arrive I could prolly knock out a set for you if you want.

    Cheers,
